We sailed south 2016 with the Salty Dawgs from Hampton Va. if you want company and good community they are a good bunch. Talk to them at their booth at the Annapolis sail boat show. The departure is always around Nov 1 based on weather window and Chris Parker routing. Various arrival destinations are planned. Many perks involved. We still keep our membership and sail up from Trinidad to join the Dawgs in Antigua mid November in time for thanksgiving at the Antigua Yacht Club.
