Otoh, it would have qualified as a proper crazy adventure.

It’s easier than you think! You can get your basic keelboat certification in about a month at a training place. Usually only takes four weekends. Once you have that under your belt, you’ll be able to rent at places and get some experience. The fundamentals of sailing don’t change, though with a bigger boat you will need to exercise some caution.

You can do it!

Look up Wilfried Erdmann, he was a famous single sailor who has circled the world a couple times. He has books on the matter where he speaks about the experience as well as the preparation and what kind of yacht he used. Very well written and interesting if you're into that topic.

It shows that you can do it alone easily enough and that you don't need some crazy high end yacht.

As a more manageable and not quite as expensive option: a shorter sail might be most of the adventure you need.

I live in Boston and at one point joined a sailing school/club out of Boston harbor. They had mostly 35’ boats but a few up to 49’. It was so much fun learning to deal with open water, complex boats, crew cooperation.

However the one thing I wasn’t in a position to do …. They organized cruises on the bigger boats: form a crew and sail to the Caribbean! While it’s nowhere near around the world, something like this is a couple weeks at sea and seems like a really cool adventure

Basically, "furries" are animal people like in Disney's Robin Hood and Zootopia, and the fans of those creatures. There's some sfw art at [email protected] if you want to see. Humans in media are boring. :P

Personally, I've seen it to be a very open, accepting and welcoming community. So I guess I romanticise being with a group of like minded people, which is something I've felt lacking in my life.

... Annoyingly, due to its history as an lgbt-friendly splinter group, it's who a lot of the bigots started targeting when it became socially unacceptable to be honophobic online. Grumble grumble.

Wait, for real?

On the chance that you're serious, this should tell you way more than you'd ever want to know about furries. (And if you aren't sated by the time you're finished reading that article, there's a link to the page "Furry Convention" in the first paragraph.)

The squirrel suit will save me!! :D

That's so cool. I hope to try it someday

Yea, but you need a 4th guy in the backup car when the dumb shit you do breaks one. And he can carry the tools to fix most things along the way.

Mmmyesss...

Sometimes, your genius is almost frightening.

But I don't feel like anything in particular. If someone were to tell me to "just do it" a trillion different random things have equal potential to come to mind. Should I tour the toothpick factory because that's "a thing to do while alive", as opposed to trying out at the tiddlywinks championship? That's the issue, nothing that I would expect to be able to do draws me.
