John/too damn cold
Here it is, finally. We are ready to head to the Caribbean, albeit on a delayed departure while awaiting better weather.
The crew this year is a seasoned one. Mike Eason, one of the best catamaran sailors around, Tom and Cindy Guminski, fresh in from San Diego and a well seasoned part of our offshore crew on previous trips, the Admiral, Joan, the boat dogs, Sailor & Gracie and me, the lowly boat driver.
The plan right now is to leave Wednesday along with our friends on Pas de Deux from Willoughby Harbor. We are just awaiting the go ahead from our weather router, Chris Parker, of the Marine Weather Center.
I will try to update the blog daily weather and boat conditions permitting.
Remember to come see us or follow along on the blog. Winter really stinks. We will do our best to stay away from it.

In July of 2012 it was time to paint the hull for the first tome since we bought the boat. I sailed up to Dennis Point Marina in St Mary's MD and had the boat hauled there. It was an exptremely tight fit in the 75 ton Acme lift.

We aimed for the BVI and ended up in Key West, but it wasn't all bad.
