I mean, apart from the sheer coolness of it all. It evolves beautifully and the denoument is utterly right. And I love the pictures, too. But I love your kids so madly I can't tell if it's because they're good & apt photos, or if it's because they're of R and K. I just realized I'm starting to think again about having kids myself. Good heavens, woman, what will you do to me next?!? ;)) This is an especially beautiful essay. I mean, apart from the sheer coolness of it all.

Wish we'd thought of it for the Zombie Princess. This should be an article in a sailing magazine to help blow the stuffiness out of the "old salt" mentality! I love this!

We have three boys, 6,4,3, and a baby girl. We are looking at buying a Lagoon 42 located in St. Maarten. And we live in San Diego, so we face many similar issues in terms of refit, finance, adaptation, and decluttering. I especially liked seeing the stateroom refit, and the bin as bath, because it gives me a better sense of reality. Thanks. Your site is so helpful. We have three boys, 6,4,3, and a baby girl.

I'm assuming the boat was waxed prior to this adventure. If you don't mind my nipping the idea, this sounds like a brilliant way to celebrate cutting the lines this spring and I think I'll borrow it. We're having an Open Boat party. Like a cast, I think I'd like to set out finger paints and have folks sign our boat to see us off. We can let it fade over the following few weeks, but it would be a great reminder of the encouragement and enthusiasm we're leaving land-side. Hmm.
