The link below is really great. It is about a couple that have been working on building their own sailboat for 29 years (in their backyard) and finally completed it and launched it last week here in San Diego. It is 54 feet long, I believe, and somthing like 30 tons. It has a jacuzzi , place for washer, dryer, on and on and on. They hsd a full page write up the San Diego Union Tribune with all their trials and tribulations, and how their children grew up, got married and had children why they were still building. Is this commitment or what? Got a dream? Rich

WOW! Only a song by Elvis "If I could Dream" could say it all. I can say 29 years is a long , long time to be at it. It is amazing that after all the hard work, the sacrifice and the time factor, that they will have the dream they wanted now at hand. We should ALL take a lesson from this. I wish them well and pray God sails every step of the way with them and the dream they have at hand. Nice story Rich thanks for passing it on. Fish
