Though his blog has only been open through what could never be considered ideal sailing weather, I'm dissapointed none the less that there has been no response other than my own...
Alright! Zombi!! All these blog sites are interestingly COOL! Hey, your way cooler than me maybe...damn it. I know I screwed up by quitting drinking temporarily, when I find myself hiding onboard posting BOOKS of interest while my loving wife is on the war path. Think I may try your Sam Adams again, as that was always my #1 favorite. Sure miss it. Drink a few for me Zombi! Looking Good, Brother!
I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea & sky, And all I ask is a tall ship & a star to steer her by, And the wheel's kick & the wind's song & the white sail's shaking, And a grey mist on the sea's face & a grey dawn breaking.
I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide, Is a wild call & a clear call that may not be denied; And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying, And the flung spray & the blown spume, & the seagulls crying.
I must go down to the seas again to the vagrant gypsy life, To the gull's way & the whale's way where the wind's like a whetted knife; And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover, And a quiet sleep & a sweet dream when the long trick's over. - 'Sea Fever' - John Masefield
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails... Explore... Dream... Discover..."

A fine breakfast beer but a bit sweet for serious drinking.
