Family Bonding

Thursday August 27^th – This is our last day on the water.  After 30 days cruising with friends and family we are headed back to our home port in Tacoma (20.99nm).  We take our boat out for day trips, one night here and there, sometimes week long trips, but its our big summer boat trip that we look forward to most every year.  Although at times it can be extremely difficult, stuck on a boat with your family for 30 days is incredibly rewarding.  You have no choice but to become closer than ever (or want to kill each other at times!) and your kids learn so many life skills on a boat.  You defiantly come home more bonded to your family and I wouldn’t trade that for anything in the world.

It may look like all fun, but it’s not at all an easy vacation.  There’s weeks of preparation for a trip like this and even when you’re out it’s a whole lot of work.  Thank you to my family for embracing the boating life that I, and now you, love so much.

Final Trip Log – 593.39nm That’s 682.87 Regular miles!
