Answer 4

I did come across a 30-50 ft sail boat! and then I did 1. 2. 3. 4.! in that order. I started about 15 years ago.The unusual place was the Solomons. Unfortunately the engine broke and I had to sail 2000 nm to a place that I thought I would be able to find work, save the money and fix it.  2 years later I am still trying to escape. It wont be long now....
