Re: In Panama, now

I crewed for Margo through part of the Exumas in Dec 2010 - Jan 2011 for an all too short 10 days and had a good time. If I weren't busy getting moved aboard my own boat and making necessary repairs...

Re: Confession... haven't told the boss yet... I am quitting to go sailing

As you contemplate your departure remember that you are nothing more than a social security number and a lunch bag to your employer. It doesn't matter if you are the CEO or Rosie the Riveter.

Re: St. Thomas to St. Augustine, FL

The entrance to St Augustine is not easy. Narrow channel and lots of shoaling. It would be made more difficult if the crew is tired from the passage. In short, pick another Florida inlet.

Re: Georgetown to Charleston, How bad?

I did it southbound and northbound in 2000 and 2001, respectively, and northbound in 2010. No problem, mon. Just pay attention, as you would in any stretch of the ICW.

Re: How Do You Like Being Overtaken by a Power Boat ?

Wow. You all are really wound up tight. I go sailing precisely to get away from my regular lifestyle in which being tightly wound is de rigueur. Although I know the rules of the road, it is my policy...
