Nothing will make you feel more alive than 20knots of wind on the bow and 3m of swell, in the pissing rain in the North Atlantic.
Go small. Go simple. Go now. If you wait until you’re ready, you’ll never go. There is no such thing as a perfect boat. Buy the smallest boat you can comfort live on. LOA means how much the marina will charge. You dont need all the fancy electronics. You need a compass, paper charts, and a working VHF. Navionics on an iPad will work great in place of a chart plotter. Get a boat that’s good enough that’s ready to sail and, upstage it with what you want as you go along. Feel free to reach out to me with any question you have. If you’re in the north east U.S., let’s link up and go sailing!
GN, plebs! Remember to turn your anchor light on! #sailstr⛵️ 
GN, plebs! It’s going to be a long night. Main and Genoa are reefed, red to port, green to starboard, white to aft. Three hour shifts. I’m on the 12-3am shift. Gonna get some sleep, now.

Sailing is mostly watching and waiting. And listening to podcasts, of course. Making a little better than 3kn, with 9.9kn on the beam and .5kn current on the bow.
If there are any interested plebs in Mystic, CT, I’d love to host a Plebs On A Boat Bitcoin Meetup this weekend.

Plebs on a Boat. Surfer Jim (not on nostr yet) came to have boat drinks this past weekend. Everything is better when you surround yourself with people who “get it.” 
Next week, I have an overnight passage planned. Norwalk to Mystic.
Another beautiful day, in the history books. GN, plebs. I love each and every one of you! 
Well, we sailed up the East River and into Long Island Sound a few days ago.

It’s July 5th and I’be bought less than 60 gallons of gas and diesel combined, for the entire year. ⛵️ #sailstr
