Pondering depature
October 4, 2006
So it's high time I got my own boat. And I think I may have found the boat for me. A week from tomorrow I fly down to Puerto Rico to view a little Contessa 26; she's a solid model and something I could live aboard, sail singlehanded, and use to island hop the winter away. I'll primarily be based in the British Virgin Islands, working as a freelance sailing instructor and charter skipper but there will undoubtedly be ventures east and south - to Saba, St. Barths, maybe even Antigua. It's all very exciting. But . . . this hinges on the boat, which I need to view before I make any definite plans. So hopefully it will be the boat for me. And if not, it's back to looking. I'm excited; let's go out and play.
