Once feelings were identified, I decided to go through instead of hiding them, and guess what?

Sailing backlog (part 1: 2012/2013)
Once your vision is clear, the next step is to build a backlog. After a year working on our backlog, we already had a minimum viable "Holidays on board Soledad" product... and a (growing) list of improvements opportunities.
