I am just figuring out how this blogging thing works, so give me a little slack as I get things up and going. So, this is kind of a test:
Let’s start with some basics. When the idea of sailing away was a mere inkling of my (or rather, Allen’s) imagination, my first reaction was “not in this boat”. At the time we had a nice 28.5 Hunter, with a comfy v-berth for sleeping, but no storage, no refrigeration and a head (aka toilet) that was for emergencies only, there was no way I could fathom sailing away for more than a day or two. Then came Meshuggana.
Meshuggana is a 42′ Jeanneau Sun Odyssey Deck Salon. We picked her up near Chicago, trucked her to Toronto and Allen has spent the last 5 years upgrading “his mistress”. So, we have refrigeration, heat and AC, solar, radar, sonar, wifi, real heads (bathrooms) and a king sized bed – we are not roughing it. But we are in for an adventure – come along with us as we explore the Great Lakes!
Looks great! Looking forward to hearing about all of the adventures! Make sure that the Cruise Director is also in the pictures 😉
Great blog so far! It’ll be fun to follow this awesome journey and see things through your eyes!
Excellent. Looking forward to hearing about your other ports of call. I think you will be blown away by the beauty of the lakes and rivers you will see on this incredible adventure . Looking forward to hearing all about it.
Sounds like you’re having a great adventure. With Cat Stevens on the bow, you should find every sandy beach in the North Channel i.e. giant kitty litter boxes. Great blog, fun to read. Anne and Gary, Blue Moon
