We are all drawn here by a common theme, and that is the love of the water.
We all have different dreams of our cruising future.
Some are happy just getting away, in heir own local area.
Some dream of circumnavigating.
Some want to explore North Americas Great Loop.
This is where you get to share your dreams, and your plans for making them come true.
What are your cruising dreams?
What steps are you taking in your life to prepare to fulfill those dreams?
I'll start this out with mine.
Since I'm on the west coast I dream of starting my cruising down the coast and exploring all that it has to offer. The things that might seem plain to some intrigue me.
Cannery row
The Spanish missions
The Columbia basin
Santa Barbara where I spent time as a child.
Then on to Mexico and all it has to offer.
That's the start, and that's doable.
After that, well, we'll have to see. Possibly Central America, the carribean and finally the great loop.
What am I doing to plan for it????
First, I'm preparing for a modest retirement at 58. I am a working class man of humble means, but being of humble means my needs are not large.
I am fortunate that I do not need to sell my home to finance this dream. Very grateful to say the least.
What are your dreams? Big or small, affluent or modest, they are important here. Please share them.
