Vicki...cloudy and hot
Well, here we go again....We are on our 8th Phyllis ...all our boats have had the same name...why we do this is Phyllis was Richard's Mama and all the Phyllis' have taken care of us. We have been everywhere...Washington State to Guatemala....Outer banks...Keys, West and East coast of Florida...Texas coast ...and back again...This time we are Bahama bound...having set in No Name Harbor a few years back waiting for a weather that never happened...(28days) then just headed back to Key West. Since 1992 we have been at this. We have loved all our boats and look foward to going in this one...24'11" 1969 Morgan...Yes, we have done big (37") to small (21'). We wanted a sallow draft one to do the Bahamas. But we did not mean to buy this Morgan...but could not pass up on the deal we got...lol...Richard was at a friend's house working on broken water pipe and left me alone with Ebay and a desire to leave our 3br2bt house to come back to Florida and sail...been on land for 7 months...Persons wanting a good boat check out Boat Angel on ebay...We only paid $510.00 for this one. Yes, it needed work and work....but she was sound...and dirt does not scare us...lol....She went from the poor thing on the dock, to sail ready. We have had offers from people to buy her but we want to sail her....Well, thats enough for now....Fair winds and trailing seas...see you on the hook S/V Phyllis
