Whilst hunting for some program documentation I wrote 10 years ago, I came across a file called My Boat.doc. I think it is worth putting the contents here:

My boat
It is my retreat
My sanity
It is what I think of when I stare out of the window during a boring meeting
It is my dream
It’s the focal point for the people that mean the most to me

And it is priceless.

Thanks Neil
 
My Varnish Pot
It is my retreat
My sanity
It is what I think of when I stare out of the window during a boring meeting
It is my dream
It’s the focal point for the people that mean the most to me

And it is priceless.

My boat
Had not been seen,
by me for a while
But now, I am back,
to cherish my love.
My sanity
in not in doubt,
for I am a boat owner.
I have no window to stare from,
but if I did,
I would be fired
It is my dream
and my nightmare
It’s the focal point for the people that mean the most to me
including my bank manager

And it is priceless
because I dare not add up the cost.

Full Circle, on any weekend

Git!

I stand by Wunja's version though!!!!!

Do you know what though..... I am getting just as much pleasure out of bringing Phoenix out of her slumber as I will sailing her!
 
Have you booked a refresher sailing course yet :o

I think I might need one!

I had the same feeling when Guapa was about to come out of refit. :o
To be honest, it's just like riding a bike.

Funnily enough SWMBO and I were discussing last night that there will be a bit of physchological hurdle to climb when we are finally ready to untie her from the pontoon!

Maybe tillergirl should issue a special Notice for Mariners when the time comes :p;)
