It was amazing. Fortunately no one on board got seasick.

Seas smooth as glass, and then........The weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed. As always with your videos, it was mesmerizing to watch you going about your life, and speaking. So warm and calming, better than any electronic brain-wave machine could ever be, I'm sure. The fashion show was a treat, too. I'd probably buy a ticket (or be your dish washer, lol) to see you work the room when you're hosting a party! I've always felt that it's better to have a friend with a boat, than to have a boat. But there are other things that from a practical standpoint, I'm the sucker to put the work and money into, just because I want to pursue what I want to pursue. So I can totally identify with boat owners, but I'll hold onto my wallet and stick to my own hobby/lifestyle priorities rather than add theirs to my own list, whether wholly or fractionally.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I lived on my 26 ft sloop (Tamara) for almost 10 years in Key West and Stock Island. Loved it. You're right, sailboats and vans have a lot in common. Vans can go places that sailboats can't and sailboats can go places that vans can't. I used to have a 22 ft Catalina sloop (Mama Bear) that was a lot of fun to sail but I used her mostly as a camper. If you're pulling a sailboat on a trailer you can pull over for the night absolutely anywhere. The one time I got "the knock" it was a cop who told me he used to have a C22. He apologized for waking me up then ended up taking me downtown... to buy me breakfast. He he he... Thanks for the video, Bev. Just sane... :^) Saint
