    Hi Peter O,
    The question of what size dinghy and design is something we have
    explored. The ones I'm familiar with have a motor, not sail. So I
    guess there must be dinghy's that sail as well as motor. Using the
    dinghy to explore the local area is part of the wonder of sailing.
    Can't wait to do i!

    I have been within spitting distance of a Sea Elephant They are huge!
    Also, up close and personal with whales, too. Glad we will be on a
    big and solid sailboat.

    I find it sorta weird that I'm making this huge leap and no real
    hours at sea. Experience before had is the logical way to make the
    transition. I suspect that won't happen in this case. I can't wait to
    see what I will feel when I spend my first night and day out of sight of land.

    Thank you for sharing your ideas with me. Very insightful.

    Cheers,

    Sharon
