We live in a marina and we vary from Vibram 5 toes, flip flops, work loafers, and barefoot, OH, and the wife wears her motorcycle boots sometimes.

But, we don’t live on a big yacht, just a smaller 40ft sailing yacht.

March 1 we are casting off and sailing off into the sunrise/set.

Yep. I told him even the captains I know that hire out wear tennis shoes or even go barefoot. If it’s warm enough I go barefoot. And of course flip flops are official boat/marina wear. 😂

Have fun on your voyage! Hubby is disabled now so the closest I get is if one of the neighbors decides my boat needs to go out. Loll. Most of the time it’s just my floating condo. That’s okay. I’ve done my share of sailing. Ours is a 40 ft sailboat too. I’m looking at moving up to a 41 or 43 aft cabin motor yacht though. The grandkids are all getting bigger now and when they’re with me on the boat the Saloon looks like a college dorm room. They need their own space. Or I need them to have their own space.

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.
