Dennis,
That is a Beautiful yacht you have.A whole lot faster than mine.

Salty,
I have done a few sailboat voyages but just coastal stuff so far on the Lord Nelson.

1. City Island,NY to south coast of Puerto Rico.
This got cut short due to a gale in the Gulf Stream between Cape Lookout & Cape Fear,NC. Twisted mast and torn up standing rigging.Put in at Wrightville Beach,NC.

2. Las Palmas,Gran Canaria,Canary Islands.(off the coast of Morocco & Western Sahara) to Ft. Lauderdale,Fla.
Beautiful downhill run !

3. Galveston,Tx - Key West - West End,Grand Bahama Island,Abaco Islands AND back.
Spent 6 months sailing the Bahamas on my 33' Tahiti Ketch.

4. British Virgin Islands.
Did a bareboat charter.Honeymoon cruise.Spent 1 week sailing around the Virgin Island with just my Bride and me.

Plus over 300,000 miles on a Geophysical Research Vessel.
