I have been cruising solo for over 20 years....it is the only way I sail. Will be going on Eclipse in 2 weeks and looking forward to it🙂I agree with the other posters......you can do what you want, whenever you want, or don't want....no worries about what someone else wants to do.
I hope you enjoy Alaska. I have been there multiple times over the years. The scenery can be be magnificent. 😃
