PBzeer, did you have to start this thread in February? I'm slow, and I just got here (Florida). Now you're reminding me that I'll soon have to slog all the way home. Can't I have a few weeks of peace?

speciald, I've lived in Fells Point for a number of years. Let me know if you need any info about Baltimore. I'm sure you will enjoy yourself.

According to this article in The Salty Southeast Cruisers Net
Cruisers' Net - North Carolina
there will be a mooring available at Bueafort. It doesn't say anything about reservations or suggested donation, but it is an option to check out.

In June we plan to head northwest out of Hawaii for Midway, then up to the Aleutians. Hope to see you all there!

I guess by some standards we are already "Way up North" but despite this we'll head for Alaska leaving June 15th 2008 from Vancouver. Hope to see some other members up there. Look out for a dark blue Hanse with a hard dodger!

For anyone taking the ICW north and isn't aware of it, Cruisers' Net - Home is a very useful resource. Not only does it have current news, it also has sections on bridges, anchorages and fuel prices.

Leaving Miami in late May and heading to Newport, RI for the summer. Then onto Castine, ME for the fall----->

Yes, we're heading north in at the end of April, but not "back" north. We'll be escaping to Maine for the summer to escape the heat and hurricane season. When we cruise "back" we will be southbound. I suppose the only way to distinguish betwwen the "snowbirds" and the "hurricane birds" is to ask them which way is back! 'take care and joy, Aythya crew

There's two lots of 'heading north'. I did Marathon FL -> New York this time last year, and had a great time.

This year we are doing the other one, starting from Anacortes WA northwards next week, with a short stopover in Vancouver until the second week in May, returning early in August. Maybe we'll reach Juneau, more likely the Charlottes. I'd like to hear from anyone else with similar plans.
