I'm reminded of a fellow with the avatar of Rebel Heart, who posted on cruisersforum. He was planning a world cruise with his wife and two young daughters. He tended to be pretty contemptuous of anyone who had a different point of view to his own, and presented himself as a highly qualified mariner who knew what was needed to successfully navigate the oceans with his family.
As I recall, when he finally set out, he lasted about 1 week before one his daughters got sick and he abandoned his boat in preference to transferring to a Navy ship that spent a few hundred k rescuing his ill prepared rear end.
Stuff happens to the arrogant and unprepared, I guess.
