the wrong boat...

The other day I heard that a boat I knew who anchored not far from us in St Martin was in the South Pacific...

I mention this because the boat in question was a Belgian canal barge drawing a couple of feet converted into a sailboat/art studio/gallery so hardly what comes to mind when folks are thinking blue water sailboat.


Color me impressed but not really surprised...

It does raise the question if we put too much store in the whole "perfect" or "right" boat and whether or not we'd be a whole lot better off putting our energies into simply sailing capable boats.
