"Don''t see much going on here.... Anybody home?!!"

Yes, but we''re all debating firearms aboard while cruising.

Hellooooooooo......

spartinaSC39,

I just heard that the Dismal Swamp is closed due to damage from hurricane Isabel and that the Virginia Cut must be used. Find a way to get more info about that before you leave.

I have not yet traveled the ICW, so can''t tell you anything else right now.

Have fun.

Duane

Hellooooooooo......

Spartina,

I''ve heard the same thing Duane has, but I also suggest starting a new post in the Cruising category with a subject line that mentions the ICW. That probably will draw a better response. Lots of folks on here only read posts with subject lines that interest them, and asking about the ICW in something titled Helloooooooooooooo might miss some good input.

Hellooooooooo......

Firearms on board? What for?

Dispatching rowdy/undisiplined crew?
To ensure your fair share of the beer?

Ya don''t need a gun, slap em with a fish!

Where''s the Pirate of Pine Island when you need him!
