  A second stint at Sea - literally "Bees Saal Baad"!! Went back to my roots after a long gap- Sailed in 2009 after getting off my last ship in 1989. A world of a difference between then and now. Much much better systems and much better regulated - but all the fun has gone out of sailing! A second stint at Sea - literally "Bees Saal Baad"!!
