Ever the adventurous dreamer, I spent years ignoring one of the most beautiful sailing venues only a few miles from home. By car, it is about 4 hours from Indialantic, Florida and about two from Everglades City. By boat from Everglades City it took us four days. Consider that we meander at 5 - 7 knots during no wind days and that we are in no hurry. Stopping along the…

One never knows for certain if and when they will see another. Life is a precious phenomenon. It has been said that living guarantees death. This is not to present a negative, depressing train of thought. Rather, it is meant to reiterate the sadness, guilt, and despair that can result when a loved one passes from the world of the living to a world the living knows little about.
Years ago I read a book. A question was posed. "What happens to a mind when a person dies. During…

After much consternation, the chillaxin phase is over. Time for work. This past week had my mate and I engaged in painting the deck, improving his newly built rowing dinghy, and putting two holes back in the boat.
The deck painting was needed. Like…

Hey there. I have been off Seaknots for a year...back on now. Where are you currently?
Hi Marlene, I have a Marples CC35, it is gorgeous but needs beams, cockpit etc finished. Do your amas fly very easy? Did you consider using an outboard instead of a diesel? I have offered my 27 year old daughter the boat but if she passes on it I may sell her. Love your new lifestyle. Stephen Marcoe
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Safe travels, Karyn Miller

Hi Marlene Anne, I'm Julie and I live in Vero Beach. I am interested in your trip to NY and Bermuda. Also I am interested in going sailing with you sometime when you take the tri out. I am also interested in gaining enough experience to circumnavigate in 2 years!! I own a 38' Westwind I have moored over in Fort Myers Florida for now. But am looking to move it over to Vero Beach in April. That might be a fun trip if you wanted to do part of it.
