I know, I know. Bring on the flames.
But...
I've enjoyed sailing, but have not owned my own sailboat. I am drawn to the idea of making long passages under the power and quiet of sail. What boater doesn't get inspired by CSN's "Southern Cross"? (Jimmy Buffet's version is ok too)
So, am I nuts? Have I lost it? Who here can tell tales of making a 10, 20, or 30 day crossing? (and only using 50 gallons or less of diesel)
I'm slowly getting the bug...
