100 things to do before I die: Number 1

I'm going to start with a big one: sail across the Atlantic, from the Old World to the New. (That is sail as crew, not on a cruise ship.)
This falls under the heading of 'big but not completely impossible' because of the time factor: I could find a crew spot easily enough, but it takes about 3 weeks, and it's not fair on my family for me to use up all my annual leave doing something that they can't (and don't want to) do with me.
But maybe, maybe in a couple of years if DS goes to the state sixth form college he's contemplating and we only have one set of school fees to pay for a while, maybe then I could take some unpaid leave from work and do it :)
