Agreed. I have singlehanded my sailboat from Alaska to the Gulf and also throughout the Caribbean. Whenever I hooked up with others, I became a babysitter, mechanic, psychoguide and fool. As you stated, unless you can inspect the other vessel, you will probably end up compromising your fun and safety.

Maybe it's just me too....There is always huge fun is meeting up with fellow voyagers and enjoying their companionship and stories, but there is no need to run side by side.
