I totally agree with Peter Ward. I have done most of things he describes and many more that would be described by today’s standards irresponsible, stupid, crazy, politically incorrect, dangerous and so on. Sailed 30-foot yacht for three years around Australia without any licence or any knowledge of sailing (done one year course on gliders when I was 16 years old so I had some clue about navigation). Enjoyed it all even when it hurt sometimes. I’m old fart now but I thank my lucky star that I was young in fifties. If this is an evolution, most of the humankind is on its way to extinction.
