I just received the latest issue of Small Craft Advisor magazine (May/June 2011), and was pleased to see a story about a couple cruising from the Everglades to the Florida Keys in a Com-Pac 16. This journey--nearly 500 miles--was taken entirely without a motor.
It's a great read for fans of the boat, so look for it at your local bookstore if you're interested.
It is, by the way, a great magazine in general if you're into small boats. I usually find myself reading it cover-to-cover.

I read the article too, pretty amazing.
I did a two day cruise with my wife in a CP16, and we both agreed we needed something bigger. 52 days is a long time.
I think the couple who wrote the article either posted on this board or on the Yahoo group. SCA is also getting ready to do a review on the CP16 and sent out a survey to interested folks via the Yahoo group.
