The weeks flew by and it is already time to leave the
Caribbean. We spent lots of time
in the Virgins, a month in St. Martin, and a few days in St. Barth. As usual, everything was beautiful and serene. We are looking forward to getting
up to Bermuda, one of our favorite places. Bermuda is the host of the America’s Cup this year, so we
expect that things will be even more colorful than usual.
We are leaving this week and sailing 900 miles which should
take 7 to 9 days. If you are interested
in tracking us, there are a couple of options:
- The Salty Dawgs have a tracking page. Either enter “Rockhopper" under Name to track us, or
enter “SDR” under Group to see the whole Salty Dawg Rally. Update the dates, using a start date of
May 15, and hit View Map.
We expect to stay in
Bermuda about a month and then head to Canada at the end of June or early
July. We’ll make our way into the
northeast US and spend August and September in Maine-Rhode Island. I expect we’ll be in Annapolis for the
boat show in October. We are still
trying to make up our minds if we are staying in the US for the winter, or
bringing Rockhopper back to the Caribbean.
Whether we stay in the US or head back to the Caribbean, I feel a US road
trip coming up this year.
