    Strive to get an all girl crew. Don't care if they can sail or not.

    Finish boat,
    sail more,
    finish my degree in 6 months,
    quit smoking (I quit 6 years ago but picked it up again 2 months ago)
    get out of debt,
    go traveling with girlfreind,
    come back,
    start post grad study and do it all again...

    I resolve not to drink any more...






    ... or any less.

    I resolve to build a nice little 8' rowing/sailing tender of my own design and finish designing the next project- a 16' cat-boat to be built next year.

    I resolve to not crash any helicopters while in pilot school...

    finish boat, FINISH BOAT, FINISH BOAT.
    Give up boat building, take up sailing.
    BE A little MORE ORGANISED. ie A place for everything,
    and everything in its place. ("tools mainly)"
    Get my crew to buy their own tools so I can get organised.
    Delete the concept of excuses; "but hell, its design and build, how could we stay on sched." Just do IT!
    Shed a few caps & delegate.
    Stop shouting. (Raggi) My excuse is too many power tools!
    Get deck mold reinstated & back by Friday. (Sheesh!)
    Have realistic goals. Just aim higher!
    Make friends with Randy. ( I wonder if he wants an old apprentice?)

    Finish our house. (lower priority) Goes up when good half threatens to leave.
    Have more empathy.

    To firmly grasp the notion that doing the same things over and expecting a different result
    means I am an idiot.
