Family and fiancee all cooped up in a boat together - I learnt how to sail (eventually) and how to keep my big mouth shut!<br /><br />Hope you have a great time and come back safely to tell us all about it! :)Nutty Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06146296943319504785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1197429752310795554.post-20626792512147541772009-05-25T13:04:14.190+01:002009-05-25T13:04:14.190+01:00You'll be fine.

We were thinking of buying a holiday home in Greece four years ago but bought a share in boat instead so we could move around rather than be stuck in one place. Neither of us could sail. We came back, learned the ropes and now go back at least five weeks ever year. Next year, the boat is ours completely as we fancy taking a year off and just going for it.<br />Have a great time xmaddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03479893496291590397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1197429752310795554.post-71452033921284025492009-05-25T12:11:45.224+01:002009-05-25T12:11:45.224+01:00Having read your exploits last year when you learn...Having read your exploits last year when you learned to sail, I'm sure you will be fine.

However, I am one of two daughters regularly treated to 'Family All Cooped Up on a Boat Together' but in Pembrokeshire, not Turkey. I survived! As will you. Have a fabulous time. It's the sort of thing your 'junior crew' will remember for the rest of their lives. (I do.)

I'm sure you'll do just fine - there's nothing more relaxing than sun and sea, and the gentle roll of the boat. Don't forget your fishing rods!Kirstyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04467950246646179449noreply@blogger.com
