I get the boring. I raced dingys ~ fast, unstable, wired ~ & I was really, really underweight for the boats I loved & sailed so it was always exciting. Not into cruising @ all. Hate salt water, sand, sun ~ fiberglass!!! I like to hike & camp & have done heaps of that over the years. I always say I got the Scots crofting gene [a little of this, a little of that, not too much of anything] rather than the nordic viking blood of the rest of my family.
The thought of being stuck on a boat for days on end with my family [much as I love them] makes me break out in hives!!!
Yeah, we had a 40 foot (thought it was 48 but my dad just corrected me when I asked lol whoops) Beneteau First 405 (he gave me the full name and details
) so definitely a cruising boat haha we mostly just went around the harbor or bays and around local places, across the bay or whatever haha boring especially on a calm day with no wind and no land in sight going across the perfectly calm and still bay. Like watching paint dry or worse. Most boring afternoon ever.
And
I love that! Sounds like me. Love lots of things. And oh yes!! Got a little old being in such cramped quarters lol
