Florida Bound

It’s the start of a new sailing season folks. The summer flew by and now it’s time to make our drive south. This season will be our biggest and longest yet. The plan is to get the boat back on the water by Nov. 8th and hopefully leave the Reynolds’ pier by the third week of November. We’re planning to cross to the Bahamas very early in December – as soon as there is a window. We’ve booked our Christmas flights home from Nassau on December 22 – 30.

You may ask why are we in such a hurry to get to the Bahamas? Well this season the goal is to take the boat all the way to Puerto Rico. Mark has already booked a spot for us at a hurricane protected (as protected as can be anyhow) marina where we’ll leave Crimson Kathryn for next summer. This will be the beginning of our Caribbean adventure – cruising all the way down to Trinidad and Tobago (eventually).

So come along for the ride – it should be an interesting season!!

Our new main cabin cushions.
It’s not too much but it’s always a challenge to make everything fit.

Be a good house while we’re gone!
