Plans are moving ahead.. but the boat buying is proving more difficult (and more expensive) than we ever thought. We've looked seriously at two boats, survey...

we've been looking for a boat for almost

two years so I know which boats are

generally quite good which both maybe

keep away from they also belong to the

ocean cruising Club so there's a lot of

information there on the types of boats

that people sail around the world on so

we can use that as some guidance talk to

people I ask people what they'll think

about a boat and lots of people give

different opinions originally were going

to go for a mana hole then we decided to

get a catamaran now we're back to them

on the holes but a lot of it will depend

on how much it costs it will be how much

it's got on it already what the

condition of everything on it is and

whether it can accommodate us all we

think it'll be easier to get boat in

Europe because it's cheaper to fly there

it's easier to get stuff that we need

over there and it will be an easy place

to start as well woody is going out

looking at the boats

because it isn't economically viable for

all of us to go out so woody goes to

look at the boats and he videos them he

inspects them and then comes back tell

me about it shows me the videos and

that's how we decide

I think woody generally does enjoy these

trips I think he was feels guilty

actually because he goes out and always

have to kind of tell me that he's been

really busy busy busy doing his doing

both but I know that he's having a nice

time as well why wouldn't you in Greece

or in the Caribbean well only everyone

in ranker

so after Woody's done his initial

inspection if rated at that because he's

looking at boats for years and if he

thinks it's worth it and we like the

boat put an offer in offers accepted to

get survey and a survey will involve a

rigorous check of the boat basically it

checks the condition of everything on

that boat and the actual condition of

the boat both structural condition and

more finer details we made three offers

so far on boats one was a boat in

Barcelona but that wasn't accepted the

second one was a catamaran in the

Caribbean that was accepted but then we

pulled out off the survey and we've just

put an offer in in the last few days on

a boat in Greece and we're waiting to

hear back the boat is a good value we

don't think he'll accept our offer but

we're hoping that there'll be some kind

of negotiation on that and then we're

going to a nice a survey after if it

does go through if your offers accepted

and then the survey is complete and we

there's nothing in the survey that

surprises us then we transfer the final

balance and the boat is we registered

our name then we'll keep the boat in

Greece until probably beginning of

September which is when we'll be ready

to all fly out house would be hopefully

rented pack up our stuff and we'll start

the journey in Greece the wormwood is

away I just have to make sure that I'm

not picked on for as a cruise we are

aligned when he's not around

I do realize actually he's like the

silent supporter because I can only be

on standby for the I lie when Woody's

around and when he's not there I

suddenly had this of the cross quite a

bit as I'm working I try and get and do

swaps with people just mean sometimes

have to pick them up a bit later and

it's just a few more favors to other

mums but I do in return for them

whenever I can

so everyone helps each other out really

the kids are looking forward to it

they're also a little bit ambivalent

about it they don't know what's going to

happen we're going up on this boat this

has been a plan for a while so we've

been keeping them involved in it

along the way but they always think oh

maybe it's tomorrow maybe it's going to

be this boat and then they realize that

actually it isn't such a simple

procedure and it does take a long while

but I think they are looking forward to

going somewhere different I think that

like travel amazing awesomeness about

the world
