Sailing and Sailboats

Sailing is a big part of my life, its my main hobby, its what my website is based on, its what I think about every day, its how want to live for the rest of my life.
I am fairly new to sailing and sailboat though, I have only been around them for about four years now. I have learned alot in that short amount of time though.
When you own a sailboat, one thing that you have to always do is, maintenance. Performing maintenance on a sailboat is not something anyone can just do, there are alot of things that you need to learn before you go messing with a sailboat. This being true, if I want to get serious with the sailing thing I need to learn maintenance.
So in order to learn more about working on sailboats, I have gotten into buying older sailboats and restoring them and then selling them for a small profit. Its fun, a great learning experience and way to make a bit of extra cash.
The first sailboat I owned purchased for about three thousand dollars. It was in working condition but it wasnt perfect. I learned how to sail on it and fixed it up a bit and sold it and nearly doubled my money. Now, I have a sailboat that wasnt in sailing condition when I bought it, but its a project. It needs alot more work than my first sailboat but thats partly the reason that I bought it. So that I would have to do the work and then I would learn the trade and become knowledgable on the subject so that I could apply that knowledge to larger and more expesive boats.
So, with the Lord willing, maybe I can make my mistakes on a small cheap sailboats so that I hopefully will not make large expensive mistakes are on a high dollar sailboat.

Travelers and seafarers of yore had to be resourceful in order to survive. Desks on board ships had to be cleared and stowed at a moments notice. Things had to be multi-functional. In the case of our nautical navigators desk, the two supports could act as steps into the navigators bunk, or to mount a camel, whichever came first.
