Thanks Ken, I've done a lot of things in my life, adventureous things, but the one thing that I've wanted to do since I was a kid, was take a sailboat to the South Pacific. I really didn't think about circumnavigation until a little later. I'm not planning a circumnavigation, rather a plan to cruise the SP. Around the world might happen, but first things first. I might end up with her in Thailand, That's where I live, kind of, my Thai wife and I own a restaurant on a beach in the Gulf of Thailand, I work in in Afghanistan, I'm home in Thailand about 3 weeks out of every 3 months. I haven't been back to the States in 3 years, but I'm going to buy my boat in the U.S., get her ready in the U.S., and leave from the the U.S. We'll sell the restaurant in about a year and a half to two years. I plan to do this for about another year or year and half. After we set up another venture I want to do, we'll go.
