Ferenc Maté: "There is more to sailing than ropes and winches, cleats and bulging sails. There are faraway places and the ever changing light, and the silence, and a great peace at the bottom of your soul."
Kenneth Grahame, Wind in the Willows: "There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats."
These two quotations pretty much sum up my fascination for and love of the water. It is the place I go that brings the world and my life into perspective. It is the place wherein I find inner peace.
