'Houses are but badly built boats so firmly aground that you cannot think of moving them. They are definitely inferior things, belonging to the vegetable not the animal world, rooted and stationary, incapable of gay transition. The desire to build a house is the tired wish of man content thenceforward with a single anchorage. The desire to build a boat is the desire of youth, unwilling yet to accept the idea of a final resting-place'. - Arthur Ransome





'For the truth is that I already know as much about my fate as I need to know. The day will come when I will die. So the only matter of consequence before me is what I will do with my allotted time. I can remain on shore, paralysed with fear, or I can raise my sails and dip and soar in the breeze.'
-Richard Bode

Kiella on the Hard

Ian and I are back at the farm while we wait on the result from the insurance as to the state of one of her motors.Due to un foreseen circumstances salt water made its way in and we have had to have a forced stay in Darwin which is not to bad.When we are back on the water we will post some pics of her sitting amongst dreams and work in progress at Spot on Marina.
