The Florida Keys trip is on. This week Clarence and I will travel to Long Key where we will meet up with Maria and launch at Seabird Marina. The plan is to sail west from there, weather permitting, past Marathon to Newfound Harbor and Looe Key, and returning to Long Key. Then Clarence and I will trailer our boats to Pennsacola to be part of the B.E.E.R. (Backwater Emergency Environmental Rendezvous) cruise. They have over 70 trailersailors signed up! Then I plan to trailer Miss T to the Chesapeake for the Chesapeake Bay Cruise, with: Al Williams – M17 Clarence Andrew – M17 Doug Kelch – M15 Bill Riker – M15 Steve Ricker – M15 Stan Winarski (part of the cruise) – M15 The next stop is Barnegate Bay (near Atlantic City NJ) where I'll take some family and friends day sailing. Should be a fun trip. John
