100% Great! Including that going to Lyle's boat saved my life and got me out of a nightmare situation somewhere else. For that my eternal thanks. If you have concerns or want to know anything and everything ahead, ask Lyle - he'll tell you the straight truth because he'll want that you know what you're getting into, and will want you to enjoy it
… read more as long as you're there. His description is true and accurate - if you want to learn building boats, this is exactly the experience for that. I like his goals, admire him his goals, want that he achieves his goals, he is dedicated and on track for his goals, and from your time there you'll be however much connected with those goals. For "cool factor", what could be better than restoring a wooden schooner? Maybe "as cool as", but not cooler than. About Lyle, a great guy and his great group of friends tell the same story - joyous people living and experiencing in the moment. If you're decent, you'll be welcomed. Lyle is a good guy who knows himself well and speaks the truth kindly. "Recreational activities"? Just ask. And music - Oh, Yes! Excellent music, and a broad variety. I enjoyed staying in the boatyard, during my time there my personal goals took clear shape and I moved forward with them - Thank you for that! - in part because I was allowed to and able to see life more clearly while in the situation in the boatyard, an excellent experience that worked well for me. I wish I had had more to offer the boat, but I did what I could. Karen, his first mate, Princess or Queen, a real sweatheart, she's as full of life and character as Lyle's excellent friends - and like his excellent friends, she, too, will win you over. I hope I can visit, and I look forward to a trip on "Favourite" when she's again seaworthy. Best wishes, my friend, and thanks.Feedback
