Re: Outfitting Our Boat to Sail Around the World: the Stuff We Love & Regret

Here's a report from a friend of mine who sailed his C34 from Vancouver BC to Mexico. I find his what worked and what we didn't really need fascinating.

Re: Outfitting Our Boat to Sail Around the World: the Stuff We Love & Regret

Hi Tash and Ryan
Wow a huge thank you for a very longgggggg blog packed with extremely interesting stuff. Nodded off a couple of times but I kept waking up for more. No just kidding I am being a little Cheeky as it was a riveting easy to read read and I have bookmarked it for future reference. Thank you for your personal effort to inform us all.
Maybe I need to get out there myself and get some of that salty air in the lungs too but right now I am going home for my regular dose of Chase the Story.

Even though we have completed our cruising "dream", I found your article to be quite entertaining and thoughtful. Congratulations. Enjoy it (while you can!).

I hope after a few years of cruising you update this post with what you would do the same and differently.
