"Sailing is like mountaineering-when you start your trip there's no "pause button;" you need to make it to destination safely, and almost always without assistance. Cars can break and stop, planes can land, divers can go back to the surface. Sail boats must keep moving, from the moment they cast off until they are moored/secured. Sailing is a truly immersive experience in the long run; constant motion for almost a month is a unique feeling."
