Glad to join the forum and to learn from you.
Fair winds.

Thank you Jim, very kind of you. We have been boating in FL, NC, SC, MA, Long Island NY, still boating often in the San Francisco Bay Area. People over there always welcomed us in such a very friendly way !

I'm not too sure about this. If we let the French join pretty soon the Americans will want to join and then the whole place will go to hell.
OMC, if you're ever looking for off the beaten track cruising there is some wonderful sailing in eastern Canada too.
Welcome aboard!

That's what James Madison said to the Governor General of the Canadas before we marched off to burn down the White House. Don't make us come down there again.
