Welcome to the October edition of Cruising Notes, a monthly email message from Clark Haley, Broker for Denison Yacht Sales. My wife, Michelle and I spent 10 Years cruising from Newfoundland Canada the East Coast of the US , the Bahamas, and the eastern and western Caribbean. With almost 50,000 miles under our keel, we’ve seen a few things that I enjoy sharing here and on our travel sites.
5 Places You Should Visit on Your Migration South
It happens every year all along the east coast of the United States. It starts as early as September with a few braves boaters. By early October, changes in weather in the NE sends hoards of boaters heading south, crowding marinas and anchorages and clogging the ICW (intracoastal waterway). From Maine to Florida, most boaters consider the bi-annual migration to be a punishment that must be endured in order to get to sunny, warm Florida, the Bahamas, or Caribbean. By contrast, a few boaters (like Michelle and me) look at the migration as an opportunity to explore new areas, meet intersting people, and capture memories that make great stories to tell our grandchildren. This month, I’m going to point out a few of my favorite anchorages/towns along the migration path and hopefully I can encourage you to slow down and make some memories of your own. I could write a travel guide full of places that shouldn’t be missed, but you wouldn’t read it and I only have time and room here to mention 5 worthwhile destination from my list of favorites.
