Ahoy fellow live-aboards and fellow cruisers, Sue and I wanted to tell our friends that a dream hatched more than ten years ago has now come true.
We became full time live-aboards in 2006 on the Chesapeake, and with selling out house and auctioning off all our "stuff" we took retirement in 2007. We have since had our passport stamped in about 23 countries and territories. After cruising the US East Coast from Maine to the Keys about 4 times and going to the Caribbean down to Venezuela and back to the East Coast, this May marked our shoving off from Georgia for ENGLAND! With stops in Bermuda, Azores and a stint of 25 hours on a Sea Drogue, we made it to Falmouth at the end of July. Since then we have had work done and toured some of the Channel Islands (UK), and Cherbourg, France before proceeding to the East Coast of England and going up the Thames. What a joy to finally come into view of the TOWER BRIDGE. Thanks to all on this list that have encouraged Sue and I and provided inspiration and advice. We have loved the way ANGEL LOUISE has performed in taking us here. We are humble about the increased skills that we have learned the hard way - through experience. Costs for our 12 meter Catalac catamaran for the Six months coming will run just about $1K per month, including electric for heat and water, to be here. It's a joy to have your own live-aboard with all your own stuff where-ever you go!
