Well, I'm off!
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!

Scout 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. Frank |

Well, I'm off!
You will be much happier if you keep looking for boats
and not find them. The two happiest days are when you buy a boat and when you sell it. If you keep looking your remain in a state of bliss or blissful ignorance.

Great idea if the boat's overall accomodation/capacity can support it. There will be cold days as well as hot ones! Fresh Breezes- Doug King |
