Until the Coast Guard decides otherwise.
Yeah, getting out is the rub. The situation is already so police intense you can get boarded three times going to deep water. So if the situation deteriorated, you have to get out early. Sailboats tend to not reflect radar well at long distance’s, is a factor. Use of a GPS logs your data into the system; another reason to embrace lo tech. The smuggler’s trick is, wait for weather that’s so ungodly that no sane man would be out in it, and split then, all the official agencies will have other fish to fry. I’ve used a sailboat for a seven ton surfboard...it’s fun ;) singing at the top of your lungs with lightning cracking around you, thinking “well if I’m not shxttxng myself now, I guess I never will” ;) Been there!
Since I have had a goal to go up the east coast, I’ve also meditating on a kicker and sailing as far north as I can before pointing for Bermuda. According to the charts there is a lot of unoccupied land up there. I’d like to eyeball it. If there is a hot springs anywhere to be found, I might have ideas.
