So long all, I'm off to Port St. Joe!

4 days and 2500 miles from now I hope to have a boat to be proud of in my home port.

If this boat is the one, I'll have to learn more about things I've never had, like: an inboard diesel engine, hot water heater, AC, dodger and bimini, lazy jacks, a boom that will swing well over my head, a wheel, cat perch seats, roller furling, VHF radio, a head, winches. I can't wait to get started. I'm trying to keep my expectations low though, as this is my third, long, hope-filled journey in a month - perhaps this time will be the charm.

Be good to each other!

Good Luck. Get yourself a grilled tuna taco at Killer Seafood or run
over to appalach and load up on oysters while you're there. The
marina you are going to is good too.
