The wife, the 12 year old and I will be moving in the next year to expand our sailing experience. The Mrs. and I are in our late 40s. We have extensive sailing/racing experience but only on lakes/dingies big and small. We have very limited
keel boat experience. Our options are limited to continental
USA.
The plan is to get a couple of jobs (again), buy a house (again), then a coastal weekender sailboat and spend the next 5 years enjoying it. Eventually we will
cruise full time. (Going now is not an option)
For the sake of discussion let's limit the options to Chicago,
Houston, Tampa Bay area, or the coast of
North Carolina. I have some experience in all these areas. I can think of a few +/- for each location. I am interested in the sailing community's thoughts.
Chicago- Love the idea of sailing the
Great lakes. But, why move to sail to a place where sailing is only an option 6 months out of the year?
Houston, Tampa, NC- Would you buy a waterfront house in a place where the
water front will advance (potentially a lot) over the next 50 years?
Where would you move to and why?
