Re: East Coast/Caribbean

Received your note. Thank you for reaching out.
Unfortunately I am committed in September. Are you sure you want to do the move then? Hurricaine season lasts until November and weather can be nasty. After West Palm Beach there are few shelters and marinas are hard to get into. I cruised down Florida earlier this year and finding marinas or anchorages can be challenging.

Below is my sailing resume:
