One Week Til Lift Off
01 November 2015
The provisioning lists are completed, the float plan (with back up plans B & C) is done, and the gear is ready to be packed in the duffels.
Like kids waiting to open presents on a holiday morning, we are itching to hop on the plane headed south and to get on board that Leopard 39. Carly Simon has no exclusive on anticipation!
BVI, 5 days and counting!
November Sailing in the BVI
13 October 2015
We are in serious prep mode for our November BVI bareboat sailing trip with expert sailors Will & Catherine Marks (newlyweds! and in their own monohull) and best friends VJ & Gina Pappas (sailing newbies & parents to Catherine and son-in-law Will; we will be in a catamaran 39').
We are trying to figure out the November winds and weather, having been told that we can expect 5 to 20 knot winds (that's a major range). If you have sailed in this season, we welcome any advice or experiences that could guide us in the choices of where to go.
Charts everywhere!
