Greetings Cruisers.
New member here. As
retirement nears, the urge to get back out on the
water grows stronger. Although born and spent my first 42 years in AZ, my second career brought me to SWFL and
Charlotte Harbor.
During my 9 years there, I owned three
power fishing boats. Wife and I returned in AZ five years ago but now her journey is coming close to an end and it’s going to be just the two
dogs and me sailing off into a
retirement sunset.
I’ve decided I need to get back to SWFL and the barrier islands. My plan is to get a retractable
keel sailboat, like a
Seaward 32RK, so my Aussies can run the beaches each morning and evening, while we
cruise and or
fish the days away. Will spend mid Oct - mid Apr on the
water between
Charlotte Harbor and the Keys.
April - October I will return to the mountains of Northern AZ and either boondock in my 40’ 5th
wheel or maybe even camp host, if I decide I want more structure.
Looking forward to getting to read more of your experiences and
learning from the forum.
