@newsread1.news.pas.earthlink.net:


Olive (her last name actually means olive tree :-) wants to
sail to the Caribbean before crossing the Pacific. So maybe
we're going to do this in 2007.

Should we plan on spending at least a year for this trip ?
How about 4 months to get from California to the Caribbean,
4 months in the Caribbean (January to April) and 4 months
(or longer) to get back ?


Four months to Panama sounds reasonable. Then plan for a 2-3 years there.
No need to rush. Why would you want to go back to CA before heading out to
the S. Pacific? Check out my web site for tons of info on the area:
