“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
Mark Twain
We’re new owners of a FARR 50 Pilothouse.
We plan to chronicle our journey in choosing this boat, negotiating the purchase, marine survey, taking possession and arranging for some updates.
Join us as we share our experiences living aboard and exploring!
