Ouch, our heart goes out to you. We lost our house in a fire in 2013 and as painful as it was, it would be even more painful to lose our beloved Grace. You have our sincere best wishes for getting back on the water and living your dreams ASAP! David and Darlene from S/V Grace, currently cruising Puget Sound, WA
Brian and Lainie, I saw the post on your recent misfortune. We spent 5 years full-time cruising a 44' cat (40,000 miles on just this boat), 2 years in the South Pacific and some time in and around Niue. Our hearts go out to you both. I am in California for the time being and can offer seasoned cruiser internet help or other virtual logistical support if that is of any help. Let me know, Rand +1 760 613 9000 rand at pipp com
