Subject: M_Boats: Baiting the field... slightly OT, but sailing
related
Hi folks:
Here's the situation... I've finally gotten my wife to agree to a
bareboat
charter in the spring of next year, after our 12-year-old gets off
for
summer vacation.
In general, she doesn't much care for sailboats. She'll indulge me
for a
quick afternoon on the Monty, IF the wind is blowing (but not too
much...
she gets very nervous past 15 degrees of heel) and we don't stay
out too
long.
But I was a liveaboard sailor, and if I could talk her into it,
I'd buy
another large boat for some extended cruising. Karen's never
overnighted
aboard... my M17 is WAY too small for her. A charter, if
everything goes
right, is my big chance to get her hooked on the better parts of
the sailing
lifestyle.
I was thinking of the Moorings in the BVI on about a 32 foot
Beneteau or
similar. I hear that's like deer hunting using a baited field...
the Virgins
are so pretty and the sailing is short and easy, or so I've heard.
I've
never chartered a boat before, though, so I need recommendations
and advice
from any of you who have. Any problems to avoid, things you wish
you'd
brought, or unexpected surprises?
If everything goes just right, I know she'll fall in love with
sailing a
larger boat. If everything goes just WRONG, as it sometimes can...
well,
I'll probably never get her on a boat again. Your thoughts will be
appreciated.
Thanks
Brian Gilbert
