A term I've heard for the lack of shower phenomenon is "Boaty body." I've had some wonderfully heartwarming moments as well and it's a part of sailing I especially cherish. While many of us are characters of some sort, there's a generosity of spirit and comraderie common to most. Cheers! - Jerr I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog - Thanks and I’m looking forward to following your adventures.

Grotty Yotty's I think we're called. But free as birds! Nick. Hey Ben,

I read this post with a laugh, because today was the first day I’ve had a proper shower since Western Samoa, about 8 weeks ago - And even then, it was cold!

Grotty Yotty’s I think we’re called.

But free as birds!

I wonder just how many other readers of your blog, and Flickr , are "quiet" readers , too, and have hopes to see you and Elizabeth in person, one day.

It was quite an adventure for me too and I sure enjoyed meeting you both after reading your blogs for the last couple of years. It was nice to hear about your latest adventures too and share it with friends here too. The story has been told a few times already. How I saw your boat, I will never know. It was just meant to be.
