Re: Amel, Hylas or Oyster

Excellent feed back and what I am looking for. I could up the budget a bit for the right boat but that would tap the separate spruce-up budget for a couple of years. Is that too risky if the right...

Re: Bareboat charter Pacificnorthwest

Thank you for your reply. I will add another element. If anyone has sailed/chartered there before what would you do differently if you went again? Pick another time of year, area, company? Thx!
