I just experienced kind of the very same moment as you!
I am going to be visiting the sailing club this week after I get home from my business trip. I put the meeting on my calendar which I share with my wife. One of the things I am working on is building her trust in me, so I feel it is important that she know what I am up to.
I told her I was going to take up sailing and she said, "I want to learn how to sail, too!" I told her she was welcome to come along as well if she wanted, but I was wondering, "am I not supposed to be doing things on my own to GAL?" I don't know if she'll actually be coming with me or if she was just making a statement about something she wants to do during her lifetime.
At least your wife has said she is interested in coming along. A lot of folks here would probably love to have their spouses say what yours just said. I say if you have room and she wants to go, take her. Maybe she will enjoy the time she spends with you on the water. Plus, it will let her see you at home in your element.
