And I kind of was like, gosh, I got to make that 100 days up.
Funny enough, I don't know that I knew that then.
But subconsciously, that must have been going on.
And the satisfaction of...
There are so many compartments in the boat from the wheelhouse to the galley to the guest accommodations.
And so finishing one of those projects and that reward, like when you paint a room, for example, that reward is just so satisfying that that kind of keeps you going.
And then you're inspired to, well, what could I do better in this room or that room?
And so that's taken place on the boat since 1998, basically.
So I often think of what's next?
How can I make the boat a little better or nicer or more comfortable?
That's interesting because our son now has put in his second season on the boat with the ambition and desire to take it over.
And the first thing he said, we got to submerge it, Dad.
No, he just started like gangbusters last season, as I mentioned earlier.
It's a long season.
And so...
Halfway through the season, sometimes the crew is just frazzled.
Oh, yeah.
