Title: Finally back from the sea
Post by: Connors on February 03, 2005, 01:09:04 PM
Hello to all,
A little later than planned but after 30 days at sea from Hampton VA to Beaufort, NC, Charleston, SC, Ft. Lauderdale, Fl, Key West, Fl back to Lauderdale and charleston, the boat is now out of the water in Wilmington, NC with a big ass hole in the hull after dropping off the backside of the biggest wave I've ever seen up close in the gulf stream.

Hoping to play some golf soon although I'm sure you've all moved to the PGA

Wasn't my boat, just a 2 month job I took to manage this guys race boat for a couple of races in Florida.  1st was a race from Lauderdale to Key West and the othe was a week of day racing in Key West, usually 2-3 races a day.  Crack happened on the way home but the pumps were able to keep up with the water.  I know it sounds like a big vacation, but sailing in 20-30mph winds when the air temp is in the 30's just plain sucks,  made some decent $$$ though but not enough to be away from family for 37 days.  

Played RVS yesterday, wow I suck worse than ever
