Re: Income and depreciation, never the twain shall meet?

Re: Two birds with one boat: travel and learning in the Gulf

Re: Chartering a long Gulf trip?

Re: Chartering a long Gulf trip?

Thanks for the tip, I was thinking I might try to find an experienced sailor or two then charter a boat with them, unfortunately I don't know any so that doubles the search. What would be an expected...
