Denny indicated that the 37 Trawler may be headed north by Sebastian in early April. How about an earlier time if the motel closes in May?

May will be a little late for me - most Loopers that start from S. Fl leave in late March early April to get to the Chesapeake by June and Canada by July or early August. Idea is to follow the season for best weather. Generally want to be off the Great Lakes by Labor Day and about halfway to Mobile in the river system by about mid-October, ideal time for a side trip up Tennessee river to Chattanooga and Knoxville! At 7-8 kts, it takes about a year to do this trip right!

October on the Great Lakes is no problem (20 miles out on 21-October!). Take your time, show off the new tug.

Bill, looks like you and the Restless Lady had another great day on the water Saturday! Tell us more! (Was this the last trip before you put it in mothballs for the winter?!) Denny

Yep, we’ve been playing with house money up here. I’ll put some thoughts and comments elsewhere.

I will leave a comment here for the Northern members (i.e. from Jacksonville and up). Don’t be shy about tagging up with these guys. It’s a great group down there. And flights to Orlando are cheap.

I didn't see that info. It looks great! Are we booked in May?? If we were in April, that July Bahamas run with all that new, reliable power (and trusty classic power-GFS, and Jim!)is more do-able. If not in 2018, then 2019 to Grand Cay.....
