Hey, Guy! Welcome back!
I did receive a previous post from you. I had not responded because I
was not sure what to do with it. It appeared to be intended for the list,
but I think it was held because you are not a member yet, so one of the
co-moderators forwarded it to me.
(Note to co-moderators: if a non-member post is on topic and not spam,
then approve it, let it get through to the list, with a note that it is
from a non-member and responses need to be CC: to the original author.)

Thank you. I enjoyed reading your intimate posts of your awakening
experience on that list, and would love for you to post them here, also.
It is funny, those posts of mine got very little response on that list,
aside from a few folks wanting to correct my assertion that Hatha Yoga is
not a warrior path... but a number of people responded privately to thank
me. Guess they were shy... or perhaps everyone agreed with everything else
I wrote... or perhaps were afraid of the wrath of the Ninja. ;)

That is quite an ambitious project! I know most boats of that size take
upwards of 5 years to complete. I'd love to see a picture of it, as it is now.
My hubby is the sailor, I just go along for the ride. I'm not sure what
sort of involvement you are asking of me, could you be more specific?
Some years ago, I was talking to someone about cruise-retreat workshops
on board a ship... this person was wanting to do high end expensive yuppie
mystical tours. There are a few successful projects I have heard of, taking
"high risk" kids on sailing trips aboard old style tall ships. I think they
are funded by corporate sponsors.
With my own work, those who hire my personal services ($200.cdn/hour)
pay the bills for the volunteer work I do, (plus the gracious sponsorship
of a few individuals who make donations in support of the work) Perhaps
something like that would work for you, yuppie cruises to pay the bills for
the work with kids.
Nice to have you back, Guy... thanks for posting!
