I always thought this was true because when you get to the destination,
you're pretty much stranded, unless there's public transport, a bike or
you
can borrow that old beat up pickup the marina uses to haul the garbage
away.....(c;
They make bikes that fold up, meaning you can carry one on a smaller
boat than a regular bike. I saw a picture of a trawler carrying a auto
on deck.

Captain Casady.. I am planning on packing a Trec circa 1984 touring bicycle
on my boat this summer.
The bicycle is lightweight, an old touring bicycle.
The two considerations a; where to carry it on my 32' sailboat and how
to get it to shore and back to the boat.
I've been thinking of making a bike bag from bubble wrap, and blue tarp..
I can take the front wheel off,, that will make the bicycle smaller.
I'm sure others have brought along a bicycle while cruising .. if you have
and read this .. pipe up..
How did you do it .. not a folding bicycle but a "real" bicycle ..
The getting to and fro, the storage, etc. ???
