My choices for summer cruise (one or more months) in an Eastbay 43
a (1) Long Island Sound, both N and S coastlines; (2) Chesapeake Bay, Portsmouth to just N of Annapolis, both E and W shores; or (3) west coast of Florida, from Key West to Tarpon Springs. Recommendations? |

Recommendations? If you steal a gas credit card, you can probably fit them all in. -- Good luck and good sailing. s/v Kerry Deare of Barnegat http://kerrydeare.home.comcast.net/ |

Myself, I'm again planning to cruise up the inside passage from Puget Sound
WA to Alaska. Hopefully all the way up to Glacier Bay. Not two worry about fuel prices. I have 3 drums of fuel on hand right now.. Just have to pump and filter it in to the main storage tanks. That would be about half my needs for the round trip. However I will watch for some good prices along the way.. I'm not too worried about the cost of fuel or at least not enough to let it effect my plans.. It's not as if I'm operating a fuel guzzler.. Steve s/v Good Intentions |

Recommendations? Does your boat have A/C? #3 might be a tad hot during the summer. Of ocurse #1 and #2 aren't far behind................... Joe Have you thought about the Hudson River? From NYC to Troy is very enjoyable. Then there are the locks, if you really want to extend your trip (slow through the locks!)The river has a lot to see, some nice beach areas, fairly easy water to navigate, etc........ Bonus......you can't get lost too easy. it's either north or south! I take it the Eastbay 43 is a motorboat. The Hudson would be a really scenic possibility. Air conditioning would be desirable there also. We have had some really steamy 4th of July weekends up that way.
