Afternoon all,
So, I'm 22 and pretty much fed up with it all. Currently stuck (For all intent and purpose) in a crap Tesco job, far from the coast, inherited from my
school years. I'm a pilot at heart, I think. The RAF was always my direction in life since I was small, failing that I would have found some other military existence and been happy. The recent years of spending cuts have seen my life, and respect for the priorities of what was once Great Britain sink beyond measure.
I've always asked the question 'What is the point?' since I understood the word have maintained a cynical opinion of modern society, and since I was a wee lad am proud to say that I've played devils advocate in most things but most importantly in life in general. Born-work-die... Sounds like a death camp motto to me. So much insensibility in modern society. Bureaucracy. Rules. Nonsense. Nations get to a point where they have finished the fight for survival, and like people with nothing to do, they find something. And kcuf it up.
Besides, they all take life so seriously

. My sense of humour can't take it.
Finally onto the boaty bit

. I have no sailing experience, no real time at sea. The odd pleasure
boat round Portsmouth to see the
Navy boats *Looks away nostalgically*, many Isle of Wight Ferries and Hovercraft trips (once in super-choppy
water, so I am actually a seasoned sea dog

) The real reason for the interest as of late is that Idea of self sufficiency. No paperwork, no rules, just survival and the ability to involve myself fully in trying to better my skills (I think that is where the crossover comes from flying). Everyone want's to travel the world, I am in a position to actually do it. But rather than do it alone, I have an idea....
