Johan du Plooy replied to Mary F's discussion 'ICW or Offshore?'

I brought a Farr 40 up from Ft. Lauderdale to NY last August. We tried going outside, but had strong headwinds after we got north of Florida, so decided to stay in the ICW after that. It was slow going, and we did hit bottom quite a few times (6' 6"…

Was suppose to sail today, friend called last nite and said couldn't make it and I was wide awake .....so I turned up the radio and drove home! I'm finding that at times a 25' boat a wee bit small to sleep on...it's that making coffee in the morning that's just not quite as easy! lol Thank you for the compliment...was goofing around with camera phone, trying to figure it out. So, do you sail every weekend? Livaboard? Finally great sailing weather!! Need more coffee, eye's still crossed..just woke up. Terri

I'm flying back up to the US on 6/5 for the summer. It would be good to get in touch again. CN is at a private dock in Westport.
