What an inspirational night this turned out to be! Gil is no stranger to MCCC as he used to be a member and one time Secretary! He outlined his dream to sail to and around the Mediterranean and then described in vivid detail how he and his wife accomplished it aboard their Vancouver 38.
They sailed their boat to the Med with the help of Andrew another of our members and have spent the last 7 years exploring its nooks and cranies. Starting in Gibraltar, then Barcelona, Marseille and onto Italy. They visited Pompei and other Italian ports. Then to Croatia, Greece and Turkey.
Gil and his wife have fallen in love with Turkey but 2009 will see them heading westwards. The Atlantic beckons.. we think!
An inspiring night: we all have a dream, Gil reminded us to live it!
