Although some of us are drifting off topic (as I am about to in a wordy fashion) - age truly isn't a number. I am 59 and my father was on his deathbed at this age because he allowed himself to get "OLD!" I personally have met SO MANY GREAT GREAT people on here that although the chassis may show the years (as mine does), the heart, physical stamina and attitude show a much different person than the one we see in the mirror. IMHO by pure fact that we are the type of people that share this love boating and visit the islands every chance we can says it all. I talk to people about sailing or boating in the islands that are in their 30s that say "there is no way I'd do that" and here most of us sit on this forum and if we aren't in the islands we are sick with DIF and planning our next trip! And then you have many people on here like Kim/Ward & Nina/Evan that think nothing of not only going and fitting as much in the schedule as possible but also work to maintain their boats! Between the islands and many of the GREAT people on here.....like many of you I have no intention of growing up or growing old. I think it was Henry Ford that said "If you think you can or you think you can't - you are correct!" If the the gal can handle being on a mono and cat will be a walk in the park! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Groovin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Thumbsup.gif" alt="" />
