Re: Halifax to Puerto Rico

The planned route is down 65 long (contingent on wind and current) with a stop in Bermuda. I've had the boat three years, brought it over from the UK in Spring 2019, but haven't seen her since due to...

Re: Halifax to Puerto Rico

Hi Mickand, could you let me know if you are a Canadian citizen with permanent residency in Canada? My understanding is that visa restrictions do not apply in this case. I have a question in to the...

Florida haul-out storage

Does anyone have any Atlantic side marina recommendations for haul-out of a 32' monohull, and storage on the hard for a few months (June 2022 to Nov. 2022)?

Re: Bermuda boat storage

Thanks for the responses. I'm going to look into land storage at Luperon with the idea of eventually working down to Grenada, and laying up there.

I'll have to check the insurance situation for...

I'll look into that. Have you heard of any particular ports being favored?

Re: Bermuda boat storage

Thanks for that! Certainly helps narrow the options. If I head straight to the Caribbean I'll use it as a waypoint for food and fuel and carry on. I'd like to visit, but I can see it doesn't make...

Re: Bermuda boat storage

Thanks for the response.

Going all the way to the Caribbean in one season is certainly a possibility. I was going to create another post asking about the best (cheapest, safest, most available...

Bermuda boat storage

I'm considering a number of options for getting a 32' boat from Nova Scotia to the Caribbean, possibly over a two year period, using May and June for sailing.

One option is to sail it to Bermuda...

Re: UK to North America

Ideally the latter, but if there's no interest I'll go with the former... or something in-between - whatever works...
