Idle chat: wings, waves, wheels…

Bingo, that is my ride..
Departing The Bahamas now, 10 knots for 14 hours and we be in Fort Lauderdale..

Eagle Eyes for sure…

The Reflection is a nice, clean and comfortable mega ship but too big for us, too many people.
Anybody tried the Sea Dream cruises? They call themselves Mega Yacht boats or some such thing.
Checked prices today $4,100 each for a week in the Caribbean, but all inclusive, no need for no Drink-Package and no need for no Gratuity @ $18 a day for each, etc.
That being said, we liked this cruise a lot, just not exciting especially with “A Perfect Day at CoocCay”, horrible idea turning a beautiful Bahamian Island into a cheap Las Vegas..

Yeah it has crossed my mind but too lazy after having owned a bunch of boats, know now how much work they are..
Will stay lazy and let staff on big boats spoil me from now on.
Stay tuned

Great idea Capt Ralph: You have an empty cabin on your boat?
Don’t mind fixing breakfast, pouring Prosecco and telling jokes, if so, sign me up, thanks Bro.

Ouch, will try harder next time..

Yes, I agree 110% and I had planned to keep my small inboard diesel cabin boat for the foreseeable future, then plans changed and we moved to North Florida and built a house on a marina but sailed the boat up this way too, 4 days on the ICW, all good.
After a few months I realized there is not any cruising grounds around here and too far to run to the Bahamas and the Keys..

Still loved my boat but with the maintenance and upkeep on this boat and nowhere to go I said to hell with it and put her up for sale, a local guy on the Albin Owner forum knew the boat from all my projects including improvements, repairs and upgrades and came running with money in hand.
Easy sale, but I cried on the inside, this was my retirement boat, all dressed up and nowhere to go including Stidd chairs, new electronics and a nice running Yanmar with all the maintenance records.

Water under the bridge, I booked a trans Atlantic cruise this fall on a small cruise ship instead this fall, should be pampered and they even call it a Yacht, must be good.

Thanks Bruh and you be right, the above almost crossed my mind but growing lazier by the day.
I decided to participate in the ship operations only by laying around the side deck, in the shade, with slow music playing, surrounded by bikini girls offering umbrella drinks and lobster cocktails to keep me focused on staying awake.
My kind of cruise.
