"Never." Thats what the Captain says everytime he looks in the engine room. Or when he is hoofin up the dock straight for the marine store. Or when he comes home and his trusty crew, has done nothing but sit in our jammies, playing the LadyBug game, watching Hairspray and eating some of the cookies we've just baked. The truth is, we will leave when the time is right. Repairs will have been made, cupboards will have been pleasantly packed and the Captain will probably be recovering from a stress-induced coma....but the time will be right. One thing a boatfamily needs to pack alot of for these little adventures life gives us is 'patience.' So my advice,dear readers, is this: Slow down. In this life we don't always have to rush. Weather windows may close but they will soon be open again. Oh, and ALWAYS stop long enough to bake cookies _/)_
