So Ya Wanna Be A Cruiser...

just to go sailing one must first navigate a drying muddy creek for 5 miles at the top of the tide,then face 4-5 knot tidal currents,overfalls,bitter cold winds,drying shoals,fog and lots of traffic!

All you high-latitude sailors are nutters anyway. We low-latitude types on the other hand are merely lazy..

But as I said, we're lazy..... Takes too long to get through all those flannels.

IN the summer, the gals up north wear nothing at all underneath their mini's. Might get in the way

Might have to put Denmark on my summer time list... Summer time is the last 2 weeks in July, right?

Good stuff. You need to write part three now that you're in the islands and able to day sail....then again, maybe you shouldn't let out any more "secrets".

No time these days.... Doing a major refit on the barge and got myself involved in a new project. Cutting into my Rum time.... no rest for the wicked.

You got both parts correct. Been there; done both. Well described.
