Cold weather climates
It took me 50 something years and the purchase of a sailboat, to finally realize I live in a winter climate. Massachusetts...I launch in late May and haul in the first week of October. So that leaves me 7 months where I consider it too cold to enjoy sailing. I still go on the water [scuba today, w dry suit] but dress in layers. I understand Maryland sailing lasts longer...so you may see me there one day.  Welcome aboard!
