Its been a while sine my last post, but it is starts and stops at this point.  Since my last post I have been to Little Cranberry Island, Maine (by car which proceeded to break down once I arrived) and then with John and Nancy Knight aboard S/V Adventuress - Island Packet 420 (below).

We had a wonderful sail down to Beaufort, SC where the boat was staged for their voyage to St. Martin in November.  Below is a scene from just outside of Hampton on the day we left.   It took us 62 hours to sail from Hampton to Beaufort with a glorious following breeze and seas to match.



John and Nancy have asked me to sail with them next year from St. Martin to Falmouth, England, via Bermuda and the Azores.  I have accepted and am very much looking forward to the trip.

More to follow...

For now, I am getting ready for the Caribbean 1500 aboard a Hallberg Rassy 43 - Starburst.
