Hi FReepers,

I'm posting in order to locate FReepers who are living on board a sailboat in or around Florida. We are thinking about a retirement sailing around the Carribean on what's know as the 'Grand Tour' which would take us in a big loop down to Columbia and back. Should this part of the trip go by uneventably boring, we could transit the Panama Canal and run down the Pacific coast of S. America.

Please let me know if you're a sailor. I want to pick your brains about which sailboat to buy and cruise the big blue water. I'm happy to share our journey to interested parties. Stay tuned to our ping list.

FReegards, STD

Albin Vega, loved that boat. And the day I sold it was NOT the best day of my life. Wife and I lived aboard for 4 years before circumstances forced life style change.

Wish I lived near an ocean...haven’t been sailing since I was 18.
