Solo sailors - what does your wife do when you are out sailing?

[dylanwinter]

I got sent this link from Mick

while he was out in Plymouth Sound his wife was....

 

[janeK]

Brilliant and good on her

 

[Uricanejack]

She does pretty much whatever she wants, sometimes she comes, if she feels like it. If not she just does what she wants.

She likes being out on the boat. So she usually comes. Unless she has other plans.

 

[dylanwinter]

last time I went out on the boat Jill went on a beer making course and came back with a masher

Ok, I'll show ignorance, because I can't face sitting through it all, who is he?

I'd like to thinks she's at home, polishing the flywheels of my seagulls, but it's probably not the case.........

Pretty much the same as when I'm out at work I suppose. Which is to say I'm not really sure, but the house is always clean and tidy (although we do employ a cleaning service) my clothes are laundered and ironed (although she does sometimes use an ironing service) and the garden is well maintained (and yes, we have a gardener). The dog sometimes gets a walk. As far as I know I don't pay for anybody to dog walk.

More a case of what do I do when she goes to jive - go sailing.

ignorance is bliss i don't ask and she don't ask how much i spends on the yacht

 

[Romeo]

I am not going to answer the question. I am a bit suspicious of anyone who is enquiring after wives left alone with time on their hands.

+1
other than I call her a boat not a yacht and I really am not bothered what the Mrs gets up to.

 

[Uricanejack]

Consider youself's lucky.

I know a poor fellow whos wife makes him go square dancing. poor bugger even has to have the right costume.
Having seen it I can't believe any man actualy wants to take part.

Mine sits in the corner of the cockpit under the sprayhood reading.

Or stays at home tidying stuff up.

Mine does the horrible repetitive stuff like polishing the hull! She goes up the mast and loves it! She fixes stuff up the mast! She loves doing intricate repairs! She does the night shift and lets the old man go bo bo's! She bigs me up though, she told some one again this weekend that she never worries about stuff breaking offshore, she trusts my maintenance skills implicitly! She wants to do blue water, now!
