Are you saying there are some "Mamma's" who, even though they are -not happy- do not make their spouse equally unhappy? Where do they breed such women?
If you want to race sailboats, even after marriage, I suggest you mary a woman who already owns her own racing sailboat! If you are nice, she might even let you drive. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
It's like any guy or girl who is into a certain sport. You don't marry someone who is not going to be supportive. Like if you race motocross, your spouse should be out there supporting you and wiping the mud off your helmet facemask when you come into the pits. If you are a sailor, your spouse should be either crewing for you or helping you to rig your boat and launch it and/or maybe serving on race committee.
If your spouse is into golf, or tennis, or skiing or horseback riding or whatever, I think you should be into it, too (or at least very supportive if you don't want to do it yourself). Just my opinion.
