Hi Alex, good to hear you are on the mend.
That beard of yours is looking a classic in that selfie, I've definitely got a few years of growth to catch up.
I got a mate who has been sailing a 23ft yacht around the world for the last 5 years. He's back in town to sell his house and property behind us and then he's off again sailing. The stories he has been telling us are amazing. I can see why you want to do it.
Cheers
