Sailing Positive Waves

PW on her way to her summer home, high and dry.   We left Positive Waves in the middle of July, just as the heat and number of tourists in the western Mediterranean was rising exponentially. We split the time between Vermont and Sweden, camp and family, and Hans spent four weeks working in Texas and Wisconsin. The most common response we got from other boaters about our summer and early fall plans is, "it's always nice to have a boat break." Sometimes it is. No more endless dishes. Lots of on demand fresh water, and hot water. Space! But we left the boat when we were having a great time. Friends, great sea and air temperatures, good food both onboard and ashore. We were excited for our summer plans, but also not feeling like we needed a boat break. Of course, land life and spending time with friends and family was great. It's nice to spend more than a weekend with people, especially when we only meet up once a year, or less. We flew into JFK and spent our first night
