Yeah, my facebook feed is on fire with this stuff right now. Depressing. But, at the same time, if the masses want to think that sailing is for fools, let them, more sailboats and empty anchorages for me (when I get there). Going to go look at a 40 CB and a Landfall this weekend :)
I feel for the Rebel Heart family, they lost their home and their dream. Don't even get me started on the terrible parenting that so many non-sailors are guilty of, some really horrifying stories in Toronto lately involving children, terrifying stuff. The world is full of these judgemental people because they have to justify their safe, boring and miserable existence, which it must be for them to focus so much on other people's lives.
