A group to discuss cruising in small boats. (25-36 feet). That's not set in stone, but I'm partial to that kind of cruising.

There is not s snowball's chance in hel I would go anywhere near the Rio Dulce after the events of last summer.. I assume you are blithely unaware of the crime problem the marina owners wish to keep a deep dark dirty secret? I have freinds who spent last hurricane season there.. I doubt they and many others will ever go back..

her profile says she is in shreveort with her home port miami.. she got me on sensible small boat cruising, florida sailors, sailing singles, female boat owners, and cheseapeake sailors.. I bet she hit all the groups... she needs to be banned and told why. anyone know who the mods are that can do such things.?

What you said...!! I am not fond of either side.. I am a right leaning moderate.. but by no means that far out .. lol... and am giving major consideration to moving to Belize in the next couple of years.. just to get away from both extremes and never see winter again..

How's the search going? Franc and I were boatless for about 6 months and it was tough. ...Not having access to go visit the boat and do some projects to prep it for the next sailing season. I found this link for the Albergs. not sure if you have seen it yet, but hopefully it helps.

Liv. I haven't gotten any sales spam either, that's why I asked the question. And I certainly haven't had any date offers! I'd pay attention to that one. {:o)

Nice interior. I long for more space. My boat is a nutshell and I feel like the nut inside.. LOL

Has anyone actually received Spam email through Sea Knots? I have not. Maybe these people only want to see what SeaKnots is all about without actually owning a boat, maybe use it as a dating service...:-) Good knows..
