Spring sail...

Its spring time, time to bring the my friends big boat up from the Abacos to Milford, none stop.

To be honest other than to keep my offshore miles to 2k a year I'm not all that interested in this sail. Its just to move the boat for a bit for tax reasons. Its just a mileage hump up the coast, yawn I hope were not pounding into seas the entire way.

This summer we might bring it to Maine or Greenland, so that would be fun. Other than that she will just be day sailing and maybe a bit of beer can racing against our friends X yacht 41 and Swan 46.

I'm far more interested in this falls down south trip which will involve Bermuda, and my favorite place in the world again, Cayman and than Havana...

OTOH if his stocks do well we might be taking it back down to Curacao in the fall threw the canal and onto Fiji, I'd love to do the South Pacific just it takes time.

The cruising life!

He has a Go Pro if we get into some slop we'll fire it up.

I'm hoping by the time we bring it up which will be the first week of June the weather would have settled down.

Way to many boats, way to little time. Between my friends boats, mine feels down right left out sometimes!

As soon as it warms up and summer starts I think were going to take the Penn Yan up the CT river to the opera house, that's a nice trip.
