Thanks for sharing. 😊 The line that stayed with me was, “We weren’t just launching a boat, we were launching an idea.” It’s such a familiar feeling. There’s always a moment when a project stops being something you can keep refining in private and finally has to meet reality, imperfections included.
I also smiled at “Every old boat has a list. Ours apparently came with chapters.” That feels true well beyond boats. Whether it’s restoring something old, building a business, or taking on any ambitious project, the first version of the plan rarely survives contact with the work itself. The people who eventually make it aren’t usually the ones who avoided problems, but the ones who kept treating each unexpected chapter as part of the story rather than evidence they’d chosen the wrong one.
Looking forward to seeing where this voyage takes you.
