Sailing or Cheating/Motorsailing?

"Motorsailig is the norm today, I read someplace, because of the wind, the current, and lots of other reasons " ,blah, blah, blah.

We are sailing, tacking like crazy, reefing, covering 3 times the distance, taking our time, but we don't use the engines unless it is a life-and-death situations (happened too).

How many of you out there, sailors, actually sail?


p.s. in the attached picture is Ivo pulling the boat with the kayak when there was no wind

Happy holidays everyone!
