    For so long you've been over-abusing your old folding dingy. Your boat is small enough for short, enjoyable, memorable sails. Once upon a time ago, in somewhere is Switzerland, I saw a sailor sail his boat all the way into his slip, drop his sails at the perfect moment and coast in. It was so amazing. It's on my bucketlist. Sometimes you have to pat yourself on the back because there's no one around.

    The upgrade from Dory to Coco, the oars, to 2 hp outboard, 5 hp, and now the 15 hp - you both have come a long way at a steady pace of steps. Super enjoying the Bahama ailing season. It is relaxed, fun, and well deserved after so many months of grueling boat work. Thanks & Cheers!

    I want to say, before I forget, that the boat looks GREAT!! All the cosmetic work including the fresh paint, new sails all whitey, tidy. The lifelines and stanchions and anything else I've forgotten have UMA looking better than ever.

    You guys are so cute. It reminds us (my wile Lilli and I) of the way we were when we were younger. Hold onto your dreams as time can be short. We are now going on to 46 years as a married couple and totally still enjoying each other. Although we are not sailing we are grounded to camping with a 26 foot camper and waiting for this Covis stuff to stop so we can tour this great country. Cherish your love for each other and it will never get old. I am 72 and my wife is 65 and our love for each other grows every day. I wish I could contribute but being on fixed incomes it is hard to keep our dreams alive. Keep the light burning even though it may flicker sometimes that fire still burns. I can see it in your eyes. Love you both...

At the end of the day that little thing would be hindrance to living the lifestyle they like.
