How wonderful for you. === It's a decent boat, not perfect of course, like all of your real (and sometimes imaginary) boats. We've had it almost 14 years now although it seems hard to believe. It has served us well, approximately 48,000 nautical miles, two trips to the eastern Caribbean, 6 or 7 round trips from Florida to the north eastern states, and more trips to the Bahamas and Florida Keys than I can remember. We've ridden out a bunch of hurricanes and tropical storms on it, sometimes anchored, sometimes docked. it's been our home away from home about half the time in the 15 year since we moved to Florida.
