Too Much of a good thing?

[Limpet]

I have a question for you long term cruisers or those that have made passages:
I'm considering sailing off to the south Pacific, but I'm wanting to be sure I have thought through the good and the bad. I'm concerned that it would not be long before it all became old and tedious. Such a voyage will take months to years and the reality may be that its too much of a good thing for too long. Have you ever been on a vacation that lasted too long? Well I can't say I have, but I know others have felt this way. My last vacation was in Maui and I could have stayed there much, much longer than the 8 days that I was there.

At sea, there will be weeks of the same empty horizon and weeks of eating basically the same foods and of course the company will be the same, etc.


I'm just making sure I'm being realistic.....Any thoughts?
