I refused to date, let alone marry, any other kind. It paid off.

Wait 'til you hit 70, when nasty is as nasty does.  But even at 40, there was no way I was giving up 15-20 minutes of sailing just to go use some porta pottie that smelled worse than my wetsuit. 
Besides, those frequent washes with The Right Stuff prolong neoprene's life span, and every time I put on the suit it feels and smells new.

... not to mention all the extra handling involved in unrolling them, hanging them up, and re-rolling them. And on the days requiring several sails, the sheer time of hanging and drying them mounts up.

| I have searched for decades for a place I could do most of my sailing from the edge of my lawn, where I would build a storage facility for rigged gear ready to plug and play. Regardless of cost, I haven't found such a place within my criteria which include living on the U.S. mainland. The closest I've come is near my RV on short trips.

| Outcast; I really enjoyed the drone surfing video you had identified. One of the best I have seen.
