Hi, My name is Amy. I came across this forum while doing
research for our "big day". We have been planning, saving, waiting for the
kids to get to the "right age", and looking for the perfect
boat. Last year we finally found our
Catana 431
catamaran and we're now fitting her out and waiting for the end of year bonuses to come around, then we are taking off. Our
children are 10 and 8 and they are so excited to go. We plan on working the
boat south this fall on weekends, then taking off to the
Bahamas. We'll spend
hurricane season back up the
east coast then
head through the
Panama canal and off to the Pacific. We have no idea how long we will be traveling. I guess it depends if still having fun and still have any
money remaining.
We have been planning this for so long that many of our friends and
family have no idea that we are REALLY doing this. It's nice to find a forum with people who not only share our dream but have also gone cruising or are currently cruising.
