Flying or sailing....????

In a bit of a quandry at the moment ...20 years ago I spent every spare moment of my life flying my Pilatus B4 glider, in that time I accured a few hundred hours...then I sold up and bought a yacht, for the last 15 years I have had great fun with her and seen many nice places....now approaching 55 and having worked in ATC all of my life ( If you talk to Scottish Info 119.875 you will know who I am ) I am getting the notion to fly again and go have some fun!!.....thinking of taking my NPPL then maybe trading the yacht for a jabiru/Tecnam/Eurostar type aircraft. Working at "Scottish info" I have met and on a daily basis speak to some great people....I have reached a stage in my life now I would like to be in the air talking to ATC rather than the other way around..........your views would be appreciated....
