Re: Million dollar catamarans
Couldn't agree more. Money is only a little more than a tool. It should be working for you. I am a huge fan of "Rich Dad, Poor Dad". I sailed the Caribbean with a couple and their young daughter for...

Re: Another Keel Lost; Another Capsize
Well I guess it's easy to pile on the criticism. They obviously made some mistakes. They lost 5-10k. That sucks yes, but recoverable especially in your 20's. They def watch themselves some youtube...

Re: Info on Beneteau Moorings 38
Also, that jib is not going to be cheap. Not sure it's condition but I am sure a 17 year old sail that has been used will be near stretched bed sheet status.

Re: Info on Beneteau Moorings 38
I can't speak to the boat capabilities, but I do recommend you get a person out to quote you for the repairs. I feel the 10K for all new rigging and a new furling system seems cheap. I could be wrong...

Re: Southern cross in serious trouble
I am glad this guy is safe and sound. Hope he gets his boat but I can't imagine that his boat would be recoverable after slamming into rocks so bad he was forced to swim an hour.

Re: 8 years of cost data
What? Cruising cost money? I thought I could just live off the sea and collect water using trash bags and condensate. Your saying that's not true, that I have to budget?
Seriously, thank you...
