The PLAN
Our future plans for cruising are open ended and rather flexible. We expect these to change.
April 2006: Leave Seattle and start heading north. A short stop in Port Townsend for some jobs, then on to the San Juans,
and Gulf Islands.
Spring 2006: Inside passage, Vancouver Island, Desolation Sound, Princess Luisa Inlet....
Early Summer 2006: Alaska, inside passage mostly. Possibly as far north as
Glacier bay.
Mid Summer 2006: Start heading South again. West coast of Vancouver Island mid July.
Late Summer 2006: Southward down Washington/Oregon/California coast. Planned stops in Coos Bay, and San Francisco. Harbor hopping down the coast from
there, eventually getting to San Diego in the Fall.
Winter 2006: Down to Mexico after hurricane season is over (Beginning of November). Possibly as part of
Baja Ha-Ha. Cabo San Lucas, Puerto Vallarta, Zihuatanejo...
Spring/Summer 2007: More Mexico. We will most likely hide out
the summer hurricane season in the Sea of Cortez/Gulf of California.
Fall/Winter 2007: Down the coast of Central America possibly all the way to Equador.
Spent the season on the Mexican Riviera ( Tenacatita, Barra de Navidad,
Santiago, Manzanillo)
Spring 2008: West to the Galapagos, then on to the South Pacific.
Still in Mexico |
