Do you know Jean-Louis Vidal (AKA Winni) aboard Winni Boat?
He’s a French sailor on a 40 ft, sloop rigged Moody. He’s in the mooring field with me in Stuart, Florida. He can speak enough English to make himself understood but I’ve been helping him out at various businesses as he’s making some repairs on his boat. We were speaking about where’s he’s traveled and he said he just left Panama in January. As a joke I asked him if he knew Splendid and you and Carla. Shockingly enough he said he knew a guy who just recently got married to an Argentinian and when I showed him some pictures from your website he said he knew you.
Anyway, I wanted to relay his well wishes for you guys. It’s a small world.
Lorry

It’s hard for me to say. I don’t have any bills or financial responsibilities and only need about $300 a month. I charter for $$$, sell a few films here and there and usually only have a few hundred bucks to my name. No retirnemnt or anything an I’m comfortable with it.

Most of my friends just don’t give a shit about money and just kind of go with the lack of of it? It’s a state of mind I guess. If you keep a house or a storage area you’ll be tied to your stuff.

I don’t have any good answers or advice. If you want it, you just have to take it :)

Peace

Im curious and have a question for you. I am planning for a year long trip with our family. We have funds for the year… but I want to make plans in case we decide to stay a little longer. :) Its inspiring that you have kept going so long. I hear from most cruising friends that work arrives just in time when that needs arises, but how are you financing it? Just looking for a bit more specifics and hoping for inspiration from that. I know you’ve probably delved into it before on this blog, but estimates on costs and how you earn it.

Cheers!
