Say what you want, but I am enjoying living aboard and cruising (5 years now).
My life's dream was to do this. (BTW, even though this is a 32' boat I have 6'4" headroom over the complete below decks area.)
I don't know what I did that was so good in my life to get to where I am. Most people never even get close to living their life's dream.....I am estatic. Only thing I did not count on was just how alone one feels when single handing a small boat on a trans pac(I have done two now). SSB Radio helps to reduce the "alone-ness.
Also I am a ham radio operator and am visiting out of the way places and uninhabited islands to give other hams a contact with these places....we hams would call this a solo dxpedition.
I may be 72, but I am still kicking butt.

If you don't change direction you will arrive exactly where you're headed!!
