Thank you to and for all of you here
Welcome to CF Lots of Americans here, but a good selection of Europeans too.
Hi Pete,
I am a Brit, my partner a German ... we both appreciate the diversity (meant as it used to be used... ) across this beautiful planet... we have so much to share and 'difference' makes life interesting, keeps us curious!
How about you?!
I am new to this forum thing, so need to practice a bit ... Smile!
Hi, there, Lo-Ray, and welcome aboard CF. I came up through sailing on OPB's (other people's boats in club races and ocean series) and eventually met the man who would become my 2nd husband. We have had a lifetime, now, of cruising, and it has been wonderful. Feel free to read the About Me for both of us, here: he is Jim Cate, and I am JPA Cate.
Enjoy your stay, both you and your good lady.
Ann

Having a German partner might be a good way of solving the 90/180 Schengen riddle non Europeans have to play. Certainly worth checking the rules for spouses of EU residents.
Us? we just plotter gently along the south coast of the Uk and France enjoying ourselves. Our challenges are not huge storms or crossing an ocean, done that. We like seeking out places most yachts fear to tread, normally involving some pretty shallow water. We still have the scars when the masthead hit a tree on this trip. The wind anemometer hasn't been the same since.

Re: First things first !
Welcome to CruisersForum!
I would suggest updating your profile with your general location and your boat make & model or “Looking” in the "Boat" category. This info shows up under your UserName in every post in the web view. Many questions are boat and/or location dependent and having these tidbits under your UserName saves answering those questions repeatedly. If you need help setting up your profile then click on this link: https://www.cruisersforum.com/forums...ml#post3308797
I would happily help more if the link above is not enough.
