Find your way about! What's new on this site?
This web site is about our experiences since 2003, living on board Fuga. We have cruised from the UK and into the Mediterranaean as far as Cyprus. We are now on our way back. We hope that amongst its pages you will find amusement, inspiration, or simply some useful information. We hope to make our way home via the Azores in 2012, and then plan to continue sailing for some time to come. We have enjoyed eight seasons away but now feel that we are ready to head back. We enjoy hearing from people who have found this web site. Perhaps you found what you were looking for, or maybe it raises other questions we might answer? Please don't hesitate to get
in touch with any comments, suggestions, or questions. |

| Making it happen | Why go sailing?
|
| None of us know what is in store for us in the future. If you want to do something badly enough, you can make it happen, but you have to be prepared to plan and work for it. If you accept the constraints of cruising on a budget , then a life afloat is surprisingly accessible. If you have never sailed, you must give it a try. You will either love it or hate it! It does not matter what you sail or where you sail, a dinghy on a lake, or cruising the oceans, the fundamental attractions and challenges are much the same. Many cruising people enjoy arriving and being at new places, but do not particularly enjoy the bit in between. In John's case, he inherited the sailing bug, but for Mo it was acquired with the territory!. |
