Title: Notice to Mariners - We'll be cruising the upper Keys startng tomorrow.
Post by: kchunk on July 14, 2009, 11:02:30 PM
My family and I will be somewhere between South Dade Marina and Marathon for the next two weeks starting tomorrow. If anyone happens to be in the area and would like to meet up for a beer and a cigar we'll be replying to anyone hailing Ohana on CH16...or better yet, just call me on my cell 3866313523. If we don't get to see you out there, stay tuned for the trip report soon afterward...

Hey all!! We're back! Had a great trip! Put over 175 miles under the keel and we had seen it all,  from 10-15 kt winds out of the perfect direction, to crystal clear waters, to snorkeling on Sombrero Reef, to 90+ degrees and no winds, to a horrendous thunderstorm doing 6+ kts under only a double reefed main with the family buttoned up down below! Once I get through all the pictures and gather my thoughts, I'll put together a trip report.

Welcome back Greg - sounds like you had a full measure of sailing.  Hope everyone enjoyed it.

Welcome back Greg and family!  Can't wait to get the report!  I'm envious,  still on the hard diligently working on my newly acquired 23 anticipating a splash in the near future.  However, that date has been pushed back twice.  I live in an area where almost nothing can be purchased locally.  Waiting on that next order.........
