SPARRING WITH MOTHER NATURE ~~ latest addition. I’m very honored that you’re following along. Thank you from the bottom of my writer’s heart. Ah, the life of a liveaboard Sailor…on a Classic Wooden Sailing Yacht… as of August 1st, 2024 we are undergoing extensive repair and refit and will be for several months(!). In boating terms we are hauled out “on the hard” in Cambridge, Maryland. I plan to mix Sailing Stories with the challenges and intricacies of restoring a 90-year-old boat. I’m always open to suggestions as to content….please feel free to weigh in as we manage and learn from this unexpected joust. Thank you. J |
A Wooden boat is a complex and unique entity all its own. Thankfully

The first strong cold front of the season will bring gale conditions to the waters off northeast Florida from late Friday into Friday night. There will also be large swell over the Atlantic waters, mainly north of 28N. Have a good weekend! |

Great story. Could this happen in the ICW? Don’t think so!

Gulfport and Gulfport Municipal Marina, A CRUISERS NET SPONSOR, located in the heart of downtown Gulfport, are both slowly recovering from Helene and Milton. Cruisers Net is proud of how the city handled the two storms and we are glad to know things are improving. The marina and harbor, found on the northern shores of Boca Ciega Bay, are easily accessible from the Western Florida ICW just north of Tampa Bay.
