Something really fishy about the dogsailors post.

Thanks to the help of a few I have been able to refine a rought We will start in san diego cruise mexico for several years or however long I would like then head over to the caribbean via the panama canal or have the boat shipped to the gulf coast.

Weren't they supposed to be leaving from San Francisco, down Baja with the Ha-Ha, Cabo, La Paz, and into the Sea of Cortez?

Everyplace I stopped (many) nobody had seen a cruising boat with two bull dogs on board, the Mexican fishermen even laughed when I asked them. Nothing in San Diego, Bahia Magdellena, Cabo, nothing in La Paz.

Personally, I think the dogs stank the boat up so much, they sold it in San Diego, bought an RV and drove to the east coast.

Ian—

I don't think she actually mentioned a boat, a coast or a destination.

Did say she wouldn't be heading to Saudi Arabia though... I don't think she mentioned Mexico... but maybe she trucked the boat across to the Atlantic side.

And maybe pigs fly.

The quote from dogsailers was starting in San Diego, and cruise Mexico for several years. NOT, start in SD and transport the boat to the Gulf or the East Coast.

Now, maybe, these genius dogs figured a way to teletransport their masters to the land of OZ, and they're in some kind of time space continuim or something. I'm only stating what and where they said they were, what their plans were, and where they say they are now. Actually, I think it's some crazed person in a home somewhere in upper state California, probably somewhere along the Russian River, that only gets limited access to the internet.

I think we got sucked in.

All I know is I love my bassets to death - no way I would sail with them for 6 months on end unless I had a 90 foot yacht and a miniature golf course on the back....Large low slung dogs do not really enjoy sailing - they tolerate it but they certainly do not enjoy it (at least that is my experience with my two)....

Somehow someone asking about cruising that kinda journey has not really spent a bunch of time with them onboard to begin with....

...a conclusion most of us arrived at with the first encounter with the "dog lady". (g)

Hey, Giu! Did you check out the hit count on this thread before posting? It would be funny to see how many moths have been drawn to the flame (including myself).
