Great web site, the pictures and travels look fantastic. I can't seem to find any information or pictures of your boat. There are a few from a distance away, but I am looking for more close up ones as well as what kind of boat you have

Thanks

hello from canada

i am in the process of planning a trip thru the caribbean and central america, starting this fall. i was hoping to sail down the caribbean coast of central america, but have found very little information on the stretch between honduras and panama (namely nicaragua, including the corn islands, and costa rica). do you have any experience with this stretch or do you where i may be able to find some info?

thanx

Hi Geoff:

Enjoying your narratives very much, especially your cruise through the Bahamas. Many of the routes and destinations were familiar, as I cruised the bahamas many times in the 70's and 80's. I'm glad I saw the reefs in those years before they were destroyed!

Noted your intended cruise for this year, and would like to recommend that you spend a few days (weeks) in Lake Ontario when you leave Oswego and before you get to the 1000 Islands. There are many interseting ports on Lake Ontario. I would suggest heading west on the south shore visiting the many small ports and bigger ones such as Rochester and Youngstown. Cross over to Toronto (30 miles), stay a while, and then head east along the north shore, then through the Bay of Quinte (which is a most beautiful area), on to Kingston and then to the 1000 islands.

Show your yacht club membership card at 90% of the clubs along the route, and get to stay for a night or 2 for free. Marinas are about $1 - $1.50 per ft. including power.

It would be a shame to miss this wonderful lake. If you want more information, please let me know.

Happy cruising.

Hello,

We are considering heading to Conception Island - We are in the Exumas on a sailboat. We are trying to find out if fishing/lobestering is allowed there or not. Your comment that fishing boats line the edge of the reef- does that mean they are just outside the park or fishing in the park? Thanks! Please respond to rebecca.childress@yahoo.com

Geoff - thanks very much for this - I have created a plotting of all of the potential anchorages and marinas on the Baja and west coast of Mexico in anticipation of a cruise. I own a 36' Beneteau CC. If you're interested - I could perhaps send it to you. I am completely new at Google earth and don't know how to send a KMZ file

BTW - do you happen to know if there are any files out there on sea depths?

thanks,

Brad

Hi Geoff, I am enjoying your site very much! In 2009 I hope to cruise to Puerto Rico and the Spanish Virgin Is. via Bahamas, Turks and caicos and Dominican Republic. In the 2000 Photos section of your site I saw pictures of your travels over that route but I don't find the text portion for that year. Is it available? If so how can I access it?

Thanks for your help
Steve

Geoff,

I need your advise. I purchased a Fischer Panda AGT 4000 in July, 2007 and had it instaled on our boat by a FP dealer. We started using it
in Sept.07 after we left on our cruise. On Oct 6/07 it had 36 hrs on it. On Nov. 24/07 after 170 hrs of operation it would not start. We have been held up in Hilton Head while FP are doing their diagnoses through the dealer. It looks like I am on the treadmill. This thing has given us 5 weeks of service out of the box, and they are making sounds that it is not a warranty issue. Could you tell me which law firm or lawyer you used and any other advise in dealing with them that will make our road smoother. Thanks......Peter

Hello Geoff,
We crossed paths at sea back in 2002 as I recall - though I do not know if it was in April near Cabo Gracias a Dios, or earlier in the year near the Bay Islands. Anyway, Lisa and I, on Sand Dollar only heard you on the radio and saw the boat that one instance. Too bad we have not shared a harbor yet. We spent more of our time in the past few years a bit further south and east than you, but in the same general region. Now we have taken a three year gig teaching school in St. Thomas.

I am enjoying looking through your superb website and I will drop you an additional note from time to time I imagine. Let us know if you need info on the USVI in case the cold trip north becomes too frigid for you and you wind up leapfrogging the Bahamas for the windwards...

Fair winds, regardless!

You photos are just so beautiful. I have only had the fortune to go on a cruise for our honeymoon through the Southern Carribean. I love the soothing turquiose waters and you have captured some great pictures. For those of us who can't venture out like that (maybe one day!) it's nice of you to share your experiences - so Thank You!
