Hi, All and a belated Happy New Year!
Well, we've finally stopped traipsing around the country and have
landed in Virginia. Boat is still down in Pamlico Sound area until we can find a marina closer to the new digs. Weather here is balmy today...was 66F....beats Michigan, that's for sure, even though she was kind to us when we went home for the holidays and didn't blizzard on us or anything. I'm not even going to attempt to catch up with the 5500 messages so am going to start from scratch....anything interesting going on? |

Well, if you put bubbles in the bozo bin you'd probably only have 4500 messages. So, how did you get the boat down there, or is it a boat other than Chanteuse? John Cairns |

Scotty We used a registered, recognized boat transfer outfit. Boat went down on her own cradle with jack stands attached to the rig for stability. I packed the boat full of our stuff and not one thing shifted or broke. Being deep draft, we have to watch where we're going...lots of shallow places down here. The tides are minimal where the boat is...mostly wind driven alluvial flow...if we bring her to VA we'll have to cope with much larger tidal flow. We're also on a floating dock system, which is great and the marinas we've visited up here are all standard dock, which means a climb during low tide....we're still weighing our options. |
