Thanks for the replies. We've sailed before together in the Boston Harbor Islands as well as in San Diego a few times. She's took a few-week trip by boat to Antarctica and didn't have problems with seasickness then but I appreciate the warning. I did choose the Ionian as a likely destination, though, due to its reportedly calm waters and gentle winds allowing us an easier introduction to cruising.

Regarding stressing a new marriage - so do you think a flotilla would be a better idea? I understand that there would be a learning curve for docking and anchoring, but after a few days surely it the stress would decrease, right? We are both adventurous so inconveniences are to be expected - I'm more concerned with it being a completely foolhardy proposition. Does everyone do a flotilla prior to bareboating?

Thanks again for your help.
