I was chatting with a power boater the other day...a dude that has lived aboard 14 years...He has made annual trips to the Bahamas with island stays of around six months.

From our conversation, he demonstrated no clue, not a hint of a clue, that power boats and sail boats show different lights at night.

He is now talking about selling his power boat and getting a sail boat.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.  -Mark Twain
