Land and Sea

Freak’n out big-time!!!!

I had a dream last night that I lost Namaste on a reef, then I woke up and couldn’t figure out where I was, I was panicking!!!!

I’m kind of stressed about the expense of going through the canal (About $1,400.00), not to mention outfitting with solar panels (to run the autopilot), provisioning, and the expense of checking in and out of various countries. I may have to run some more backpackers between Panama, and Colombia, I really can’t wait to be on the other side, back in my home ocean, The Glorious Pacific!!!

I felt much better after visiting yachtworld.com and looking at cheap boats for sail. If I ever did loose Namaste (God I hope it never happens) I could plug back into the system and get into another boat for under 20K, I could probably pull that off in 8 months.

When I started this trip I was on a 5 year plan, needless to say that plan is in the bilge, and I’m defiantly a lifer. This is it for me boy, I really feel home in the sea.

Tonight I hope to dream of sailing across the Pacific, no matter what happens, I will make that one a reality, that will truly be a blast. I wonder how it will go?

Well I’m going back to work on the boat, having some stainless work done to reinforce the bowsprit, just in case.

Just wanted to say hi and I’m pretty much all recovered.
