Great News
Well its been a while since I've made a post here, but then its been a busy time for me. I guess you could say I've been busy fixing out board motors diesel engines and Pactors with Karin's help. With this we've met a lot of great people and made some long lasting friends. When we weren't helping sailors we were enjoying the sun and sand. We also have found our sailing skills and understanding getting better. With the great sailing here, its been like going to school on how to live and sail aboard our home. You find you are always very cautious, as this is our home.
With another note we find we will be putting our trip on hold for a couple of years as we will be heading home to spend some quality time with our families. While returning to Canada we plan on heading back to Ontario and staying at the Port Credit Marina, as that is a live aboard marina. Both Karin and I have come to enjoy living aboard and so wish to still be permitted to do that. I might also suggest that with this first trip we've come with some ideas that we hope to apply before we head on again. A few of them are moving of the helm back, steps on the mast, a bow sprit,and a freezer just a few, although there are some other small ones.
At this time I've come to a point in this post to pass along some very interesting and exciting news. While in Georgetown I called Karin, on about me asking her to marry me, and her reply had been when I get her some where warm. So being it was warm, I again asked and her not knowing I had already been making the plans, she said that we couldn't as who could perform the ceremony, a surprise to her was that there was someone.
