I had my share of true balls adventure and close calls at sea on two sailboat crew jobs I worked out of Ft Lauderdale after college. When the waves match the length of your boat and you can't sleep for 36 hours or more, as much as you love the sea and the adrenaline rush; you wish you were back on shore enjoying a cold beer. Then there are those quiet nights with steady trade winds, sails and tiller trimmed so the boat sails itself, stars you rarely see onshore, while you sit on the bow watching dolphins play in your bow wake; those are the nights i miss the most. I have to say if a powerball winner came my way, I'd be back at sea in a heartbeat, in a custom sailboat and all the new tech toys; better happen quick unless they have a wheelchair ramp on each port of call.
