A Sailing/Cruising Blog or an Travel/Adventure Blog?

Ok, I've got a question for you.  This blog was originally intended to document our conversion to a cruising lifestyle.  Obviously plans have changed and while I will continue to write about sailing I know these will be less regular than they were in the past.

When COVID19 became an issue, I was preparing for a trip to the Bahamas.  My hope is to reschedule that trip soon...but that is another story.  After the Bahamas trip obviously needed to be rescheduled, my focus then became how to get back home.  As mentioned in my prior post, the solution ended up to buy a small travel trailer.  

Since returning home, we have taken a few trips with the trailer.  We have also made some modifications to the trailer so it would work better for us.  Some of this is surprisingly similar to sailing/cruising while other aspects are obviously different.

So, my question to you is...are you interested in hearing about the travel trailer stuff?  Or should I keep the blog more sailing oriented?  I don't think this will turn into an RV blog by any means, but it would give me something else to write about during those dry spells when I am not at the boat.

What do you think?  Leave a comment and let me know.

  2. I'm not much interested in RV talk . . however I think it would be good to post on at least a semi-regular basis for two reasons: 1) readers who follow these type blogs and have followed a particular blogger become interested in what the blogger is doing in their life in general, and 2) when posts become too infrequent readers tend to forget about checking in on them.

    In regard to reason #1, for years I followed the Blog "Zero to Cruising" which was an excellent blog on all counts. In fact I ended up actually meeting up with Mike and Rebecca down in Grenada at one point. They lost their boat and converted their blog to one about biking which I continued to follow even though I wasn't really that interested in long distance biking. Then the blog just went dead . . reasons unknown . . and I no long bother to check up on it. I really wish they'd have closed up shop in an official sort of way instead of just disappearing.
