Hi, I own a Junk rig Colvin Gazelle in Napa CA and am looking for help in moving it down to Mexico in January. I have little experience so would like people with experience whose advise I can trust. My plan is to be in Napa beginning of December to get the boat ready then sail it around San Fran bay for several weeks until confident enough to head down the coast. Any one interested in this adventure my email is kiwitrucker500@yaho.ca Thanks Tony
Sounds like fun ...If you decide to truck it instead of sailing I heard about this guy that will give you a good deal on freight forwarding...Ha ha ha...Just kidding! good luck ,fair winds and far places...
Hi Brice, As I said in the add I have little experience so am looking for people with experience to learn from. Could you give me your experience please and any references you my have. I am not sure what you may want to know so ask any questions and I will answer. Tony
