The trip (sort of)


A lot of people wonder about where we're going, how far we'll get and know little about the waterways that once were the highways that built North America.

We're starting in Port Dover and travelling to Buffalo, New York. There we will take our mast down, mount it on a stand on the boat and travel through the Erie Barge Canal. Check out Bruce Springsteen's version of the Erie Canal. Check out www.eriebargecanal.com

We arrive in Waterford, N.Y. (great spot, we're sure) and then to Albany and the mighty Hudson River.

Then to New York, out to the Atlantic, down to Delaware (ish) and Cheasapeake Bay then the Intracoastal Waterway to points south - Florida, Bahamas, Caribbean and warm water.

As Silver Donald Cameron put it: we'll be sailing away from winter.
