Most people look at this boat and see the sunroof. I look at this. Joystick and bow thruster control, mounted right at the stern. You can stand back here — where you can actually see your slip — and dock this boat solo, in a crosswind, without stress. Yes, the sunroof's nice too. But this is why you'll actually love owning it. This one's already sold — but it's a real comp if you're shopping this class of boat. Full walkthrough — link in the description. 2016 Jeanneau NC14.

This was a special day. It started out with Radio Taiso again early morning then we rowed out to Wahine. It was only the second time I'd sailed with 91-year-old Chiharu. The first was back in April, when I owned and skippered Wahine. One of my favourite memories from that day was watching Chiharu at the helm. She absolutely loved it. Today was different. Wahine now belongs to her son, Mitsu, who plans to sail her from Japan to Mexico next year as part of his turtle research. Today was his first time skippering Wahine. He is an experienced sailor, but today his first taking responsibility for Wahine I came along as crew while Mitsu handled every aspect of the boat himself. It was a training sail and a pleasure to watch. Chirau was back at the helm again, smiling just as she had a few months earlier. By evening, we were back at Mitsu's house overlooking Buren Bay, where mother and son picked up their instruments and sang together once again. Some moments stay with you long after the day is over. This was one of them. Tomorrow... Day 4. A Week with Chiharu is a seven-day glimpse into the life of 91-year-old Chiharu as she spends time with her son Mitsu and me in Buren Bay, Japan. Through ordinary moments—sharing meals, singing, sailing, walking, and simply enjoying each day's adventures—I'm exploring what everyday life can teach us about aging well, community, and the art of growing older. https://www.nevertoolateacademy.com/blog #Longevity #Sailing #Japan #Community #HealthyAging #JapanSolo #ActiveAging .

Vi lyckades enligt alla andras mått. Bra jobb, fin familj, vackert hus i härligt villaområde. Men jag kände mig inte helt lycklig, det var en falsk nöjdhet. Så vi sålde allt och flyttade in på en segelbåt, just nu i Karibien med våra tre barn. Nu lever vi inte det liv som ser bäst ut på pappret, utan det som känns bäst. ❤️ Och ni är många som säger att jag ler med ögonen, att det strålar om mig. Och jag känner detsamma ❤️ Jag är lycklig på riktigt. Inte för att allt är perfekt, utan för att jag är sann mot mig själv. Det är ett liv vi har (så vitt vi vet) och jag är stolt över att vågade lyssna i tid ❤️ Känner du igen dig? Kommentera gärna om du någonsin känt att livet på pappret inte är det som gör dig lycklig ❤️
