Hello Joe;
I am 66, have a 1977, Pearson 35 that is getting a new diesel this week along with other goodies that will enable me & my lovely wife to sail Narragansett Bay this summer, More upgrading next winter & then onto faraway places the following summer. I would love to sail this boat to the Med & hang out around Greece, Italy, the Dalmations, & the coast of Turkey. If that is too ambitious then it''s down the ICW to Cuba & onto the BVIs''. I work out three times a week & walk(not stroll) several miles a day to stay strong & in shape. There is so much to see & experience & to me the way to see it is by a good boat. Anyway , good for you & hope you have many, many more years of adventure.
