Can a Landlubber Learn New Tricks?

As a young woman, I dreamed of living aboard a sailing vessel, traveling the world on the wind. A single move inland, three hours from salt water, and I turned away from my dreams of the sea. Thirty (30!) years later and another move back to the sea, it seems my dreams are still alive.

Partly cloudy & warm!
As a young woman, I dreamed of living aboard a sailing vessel, traveling the world on the wind. A single move inland, three hours from salt water, and I turned away from my dreams of the sea. Thirty (30!) years later and another move back to the sea, it seems my dreams are still alive.

The real question is; "Am I up to the challenge?"

Vixen is a Tartan 37, built in 1980, and owned by my Aussie sweetheart, Vincent Townrow. Since birth, Fox has been an animal near me, both physically and spiritually, so there's a certain lovely symmetry to another vixen becoming a part of my life. Two Vixens and A Man From Oz.

I hope to use this space as a forum for my rants, my raves, lessons learned and grand revelatory moments.
