We're off to check out a couple of local monohulls in about an hour. A Hunter 34' and a Hunter 40'. We've been looking into monohulls thanks to the incredibly reduced price vs a multihull (1/4 the price in most cases!). Thoughts are that if we go ahead and buy a boat, then we can learn to sail now. NOW. I want to be on the water. I'm ready. We'll see how today's viewings go. We may love them, we may not. From what I can tell, Hunters are really more for coastal sailing/cruising than for bluewater trips (ocean crossings). But if the 40' is sound and do-able, I say go for it. (She's recently been on a trip to the Caribbean and returned her owner to Savannah safe and sound).
Just finished up another semester of Culinary School. Finally learned to fillet/cook fish! Just try to convince me that won't be helpful on a boat. It was a great semester, but now that it's over I'm ready to enjoy my summer. I also just completed my Water Fitness certification and can't wait to get started teaching. If I can't be ON the water at least I can be IN it!
Happy (almost) Summer!
