We're in Southern California and the boat's in Stuart Fl. about 6,500 miles by water or 11 or 12 hours taking cars and commercial jets. But then,,, home is Dana Point California and the boat is where ever it was when we left it.
That's cruising and boat ownership for us. The good part is that when we get on the boat it's for 4 months and home (California) isn't home but the boat is till we leave it and return to the California house.
