Hmmmm.... Boat's in the water all year round.... get to sail the Caribbean in winter too..... Life's pretty good out here!
Heading out after work for a 3 day rendezvous in the Gulf Islands, and in the middle of a mini heat wave to boot...
Don't know if I could do the "east coast" thing...

Oh well... atleast once the projects are out of the way i can expect to sail through November. |

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Yes, portugese women tend to have a bit of a temper.

It's one thing to see the pictures/videos and to talk about Giulietta here on sailnet but it's an amazing experience to actually sail her in person. That boat is awesome. Slightly tempermental but maybe she got that from her owner!!! heh heh  |

Well Faster, there's the northern east coast "thing" and the southern. Many of us right coasters enjoy the migration up and down the coast with the change in seasons - in spite of that Yankee/Southerner "thing".
Life is good with unbiased choices.

You were talking about the boat's owner...and how she might be the source of the boat's tempermental nature. You obviously weren't talking about the guy that she lets sail her boat, when she's not using it.
