Article Abstract:

A cruising couple describe their experience after 12,000 miles of bluewater passages that they feel cut adrift from life ashore as they have found their identity in sailing and thus determined never to live ashore full-time again. They found that open-ended cruising had two completely opposite effects on each of them and both present their individual point of view.
