9 Years on 40 feet? Oy! Ahoy!
We had the great pleasure of meeting and dining with friends-of-friends-now-friends Anne and Martin. Out in the hinterlands of Port Moody, BC (about 30 miles from Vancouver), these two spent nine YEARS of their lives on a smallish sailing craft, circumnavigating the earth. Oh, and five more on the boat in a Vancouver marina in preparation.
Their website tells the tale better than we could; what we can say is they are gracious hosts, interesting folks, and good cooks too.

This is one of those "six degrees of separation" things. I don't usually put a lot of stock in to this notion but in this case it's worked for us: We met new friends Chris & Ann on a segment of the lengthy cruise we'd made the previous year. THEY'd made friends with Anne & Martin on another cruise. We've got a home in British Columbia, Anne & Martin have a home in British Columbia. "Oh! You must meet them!". The rest is history.
