It is "deja vu all over again". A year ago we were going through the same steps getting ready for our first trip to the Bahamas. This time we have a better idea of what we will need and not need but it is still a big project. We have bought our provisions and got them stored away, sorted and taken off the cloths we will not need and are in the process of finding storage space for everything else. The outboard motors and diesel engine have been serviced. Now we are waiting for the weather to cooperate. Today it is raining and and a cold front is moving through the area. Depending on how fast the front moves we should be able to start our trip in the next couple of days.
Our plan is to make our way down the ICW to Beaufort Inlet and follow the coast to St. Augustine FL. That may not be possible but there are a number of inlets where we can come in if things don't go as we wish. We are hoping for good winds so we can sail but if we have to we can motor for most of the trip.
Wish us luck.
