Playlist for Southbound Cruising

[Trim50]

My wife and I are waiting here in San Diego to join the Baja HaHa Rally going South to Cabo on October 26th. We have an I-pod with over 20,000 sounds, but absolutely no good playlists yet.

We are looking for some good sailing playlists if anyone has any that they are willing to share or if anyone has a source for good playlists.

Good Lord!! and I thought I was doing well with 6 thousand! Oh well....

[Trim50]

Actually, we have 26,185 songs for 116.9 GB...but still no playlists.

I just play Kenny Chesney "Be as you are" over and over and over and over again.

1. Kenny Chesney - Old Blue Chair
2. Kenny Chesney - Be as You Are
3. Kenny Chesney - Guitars and Tiki Bars
4. Kenny Chesney - Island Boy
5. Kenny Chesney - Somewhere in the Sun
6. Kenny Chesney - She's from Boston
7. Kenny Chesney - There's Something Sexy About the Rain
8. Kenny Chesney - French Kissin' Life
9. Kenny Chesney - Key Lime Pie
10. Kenny Chesney - Sherry's Living in Paradise
11. Kenny Chesney - Magic
12. Kenny Chesney - Soul of a Sailor
13. Kenny Chesney - Old Blue Chair (Acoustic)

But then I only own 10 or 12 cds so what do I know? Certainly nothing about "playlists".

One of my favorite sailing songs is "Maybe Tomorrow" by Stereophonics

[RaptorDance]

Howdy!

Just pull in all your Jimmy Buffet, Eileen Quinn, Linda Dashew and select Enya (Oronoco Flow), Christopher Cross (Sailing), Gordon Lightfoot, etc. and hit shuffle!

Have a great time on the HaHa! We did it in 2004 and 2006. Raptor Dance is Wintering in Paradise Village (Nuevo Vallarta) right now, but we'll be back on board on 29 Oct.

What are you plans after the HaHa?

Hope to see you on the Mexican Riviera this winter and/or the Sea of Cortez in the Spring.

[Trim50]

We will be at Paradise Dec.14th thru Jan 12th...see ya there for New Years?

Give your thread title, I would imagine "Southbound" by the Allman Brothers would be a must for the playlist.
