Default Help, my small ship has come in, I have a dream!

7) At my cabin I am busy converting a 16 foot canoe to a partly covered
sailing catamaran.

So here is my dream and questions assuming I can get the canoe properly
converted. Is my dream of cruising around the islands of the Bahamas for 1-2
weeks a valid dream? The canoe and add-ons will fit easyily on my truck, I
was planning to drive it all down to Florida, then get a lift to the Bahamas
then just cruise for a week or two.

How hard will transfering the craft to the Bahamas be?

Who is the best to contact? Airline? Cruise boat? Or the special boat
transporters? Private boats making the crossing?

What else should I be thinking off.
