Rounding the Capes is second only to circumnavigations. H.W. Tilman, the
Great Pilot Cutter Captain and mountaineer, after failing on a climbing
expedition, decided to circumnavigate Africa (he sailed to his mountains).
Since you've already completed the circumnavigation of Cuba and select Keys,
I would suggest circumnavigating Australia, or South America. This type of
circumnavigation, done correctly, is coastal cruising with challenging blue
water passages. As you know, the coastal part requires much more alertness
so the blue water parts would be a welcome relief, almost relaxation.

The Caribbean is becoming old hat though
the Bahamas still have many locales I have
not seen.

I'm kicking around the possibility of going
'round the Horn and heading off to the
South Sea islands. Of course, I would
continue around to close the circle.

I figure at my leisurely pace it should take
three or four years.

The question I must ask is could you guys
and gals survive that long without me?
