If you have a 23 foot trailer sailer, come to Maine. Fantastic
scenery, cool enough to sit in the sun all day in Summer comfortably.
The many islands provide lots of protection if it blows. No crime to
speak of, no immigration hassles. If you start about Rockland and
head east, it will seem plenty exotic pretty quick.

Think about spending a week sitting in the hot Florida sun while
waiting to motor across a big expanse of open water when you could
spend the same week doing this:

which just got us to the beginning of the really good part.

I once met a couple who spent three months a year for 30 years
cruising in Maine and they said they still hadn't seen it all.
