Don't try to plan the whole trip before you leave your home slip. 
Eileen Quinn who writes songs about the cruising lifestyle (her CD's 
highly recommended) has a song with a line in it where the skipper has 
all his waypoints programmed into the GPS but never leaves the dock.


Hi Jim, WOW thats really good advice which I will take with me.  Your 
write I was trying to plan out the whole trip with out truly seeing it
that way. I will "atempt" :) to create basic way points for maybe a 
week in advance.  But your correct, I will meet alot of people, local 
people, there the best ones for the information I'll be looking for!

Before I started this thread I thought maybe I shouldn't may not get 
anyone talking about their experences.  Well it doesn't take owning a 
boat to give good advice!

Thanks for your time Jim,


Matt ...
