29. No excuse for a boring life: Circumnavigation after retirement

How did a three-year sailing trip turn into a 12-year circumnavigation? David Haigh left on his sailing trip after retiring from his job at a university, and sailed around the world and in some unusual places like the great European rivers, and to St Petersburg in Russia - and by the way there's a cautionary tale attached to this story! David shares great advice about choosing crew onboard and he talks about the importance of understanding that the cruising lifestyle is not just about sailing, it's most importantly about adventure.
