Right Again! I threw a lotta bucks away trying to keep some material things in storage, after some three years (I don't burden relatives/friends with my problems) I did a garage sale as the stuff was not worth the bill. Bad O, I can relate, same thing for me, but the change was good for me. Ended up living aboard for abut ten years. Just take what you actually NEED. A single guy can easily live aboard a Catalina 30; I recommend it. After that you will know absolutely what kinda space you really need. Shucks, Robert Service and Jack London shared a two room cabin in the Yukon all winter loooong. This teaches how little you need, as opposed to how much. People are much to spoiled nowdays, cannot believe they are the decendants of wagon-train pilgrims..."I cannot live without: air-conditoning, central-heating, bottled water, television, et al Looking back on it, my live-aboard days, mind you I was sailing three day a week minimal, and had my inflatable ready to go and used it too, had great neighbors too, were a very happy time for me.Living on that boat, and another during that time period, was a huge help for the dark-depression of the loss and turned out to be very happy days. Live aboard that Catalina, save and read up, you will learn much from osmosis of being round folks that live boats. Then you will know exactly what you want, trust me, no one can be a real help in this for you.

I am trying my best
I am down in Hampton with some of my family. My uncle has a house and the Chesapeake Bay is his back yard. He has his own private beach and he is an awesome and wise person. I am doing okay. I am kind of afraid to go out and sail because being alone on the boat in the evening could get really lonely right now. Espeically if my cell signal died.
