I wonder how many days so far this year Capt. Skippy
has been out sailing the "Flying Pig"?

Why, it wouldn't surprise me if Bruce in Bangkok has
him beat.

I'm too busy to go into detail, but many vexing problems (you know about
those) electronic and mechanical have been conquered.

When I get a life again, you'll hear from me in more depth. Part of it will
likely include heading down the keys in shakedown mode...

I'll buy you a beer and Lydia a Shirley Temple. Females are such
lightweights! It's too damned hot this summer to be working on
boats anyway. I sweated my ass off for an afternoon just getting
my NMEA wires connected so they work. I can drink four or five
beers and not have to urinate, it's so hot.

I started out in May weighing 193 pounds. Now I'm down to 165 and
most of it is sweat loss. I keep thinking if I can get really
skinny I won't be so hot but it doesn't seem to be working.

Right now it's 95.9 degrees in the galley and I'm not cooking
anything. There's been almost no wind all summer long. It's
terrible. Forget all about sailing. Just not enough wind for
weeks at a time. It's like the doldrums moved to southern
Florida.

You should go north to New England in the summer like most right
thinking cruisers. We haven't seen temperatures above 78 for about a
month and night time temps are dropping down into the low 60s and
upper 50s.

Once one hits Palm, one can make the rest of the trip by Ditch or Inland
Waterway. You can do it further south too but the density of low bridges
is a PITA. It's actually relaxing and pleasant even singlehanding as you
can easily find anchoring nightly.
