Please tell me which is the best route (East or West of Cuba) and best time of year to do this. How long does this take in a 40' monohull ? Should I bring a lot of supplies or is it easy to find them along the way ? Have you considered another hobby? -- Good luck and good sailing. s/v Kerry Deare of Barnegat http://home.comcast.net/~kerrydeare Maybe the OP is at the beginning of his sailing life and is just curious about the possibilities. The realities will be obvious enough with time. |

This is really amusing how this question has taken on a life of its
own! 1. A "knot" is a distance, as in "one nautical mile" in the sense that I intended it. 2. Newbie Tia - you should purchase Cornell's "World Cruising Routes" instead of using Google Earth to plan the trip. 3. Tia, have you ever sailed before? Is this a boat you already own, or were you offered a ride on someone else's boat? We'd all like to know why you asked such a peculiar question.
