    For many, time is a luxury. If you have that luxury, sail *slow*, make
    frequent stops, and enjoy what each place has to offer. Nobody can see it
    all; there will be plenty of new experiences each and every time you go
    north and south.

    If you can't afford the time, take the stream and sail fast.
