Abstract

Escaping to sea by sailing boat conjures up images of idyllic anchorages and cocktails at sunset. In this paper, the authors reflected on the reality of extended voyaging to highlight how freedom and escape are relative and constantly negotiated. The authors utilize dialogue in the analysis of the data and draw on lived experience informed by immersion in the cruising community. The authors highlight how living at sea requires adherence to an “alternative” set of obligations to land-based life. They argue that blue spaces are important as a setting for a range of experiences that allow the exploration of what is possible and how one might live well. This paper contributes to the research on human–water relationships, that is, reshaping how we conceptualize blue space(s).
蓝色空间的梦想与现实:海上航行对自由的追求
乘帆船出海,让人联想到田园诗般的锚地和日落时分的鸡尾酒。本文通过对长期航行现实的反思,强调自由与逃避是相对的,是不断协商的。作者利用对话的数据分析,并借鉴生活经验告知沉浸在巡航社区。作者强调,海洋生活需要遵守一套“替代”陆地生活的义务。他们认为,作为一系列体验的背景,蓝色空间很重要,可以让人们探索什么是可能的,以及如何生活得更好。本文有助于研究人水关系,即重塑我们对蓝色空间的概念。
