Re: Blue Water Crossing Wanted

I will be taking my Block Island 40 from Rhode Island to Galveston, TX after hurricane season. I'm looking for someone with blue water experience to sail down there with me. I'm not trying to break any records. Just want to get my boat and crew there in one piece. email me at rwdoherty 04 at yahoo dot com if you're interested.
