to take the boat up to the Bras D'Or Lakes in Cape Breton. We keep the boat near Chester, Nova Scotia. Yep, we still have the CL35 although this year we'll be sporting new sails and a new Yanmar. I'm hoping to motor less than before but when I WANT to motor, I'm hoping to motor more! I've learned my lessons long ago about fixed schedules so that's why I'm interested in others planning methods. It's real easy knocking off the miles at the kitchen table looking at the charts! The kids are 12 and 14 and have spent most of their lives around the boat so they travel pretty well. Let's not discuss the dog... The wx is going to have as much to do with progress as anything since cold rain and fog is quite likely. A delivery crew is possible for one way but we haven't got that far ahead in the plan yet.
