VSat providers- we love them and we hate them! My new boat has a newer KVH system aboard, and we are having trouble with both the VSat and TV...
What about Westport, Delta, and Christensen in the Northwest? They build large yachts.
5' would be no problem, but I can't imagine taking a 103' there. You're more likely to experience weed fouling before running aground! I took...
No worries. If you do go to Sarnia, make sure to go to Sarnia Bay Marina, which is better suited toward transients than Bridgeview Marina. There...
I'd recommend that you stop in Sarnia rather than Port Huron. There is a nice marina in Sarnia Bay, which is a very pleasant stop compared to the...
Thanks guys. We are enjoying the PNW this month, and will be back next month. I will keep an eye out for the magazine article. Cheers.
End Of An Era Today is my last day aboard the RENA. I'll be taking a new post on M/Y EVVIVA in Alaska on August 1. It's been a great 9 years...

For France I use Lunautica and have been very happy. For Croatia, Luka at LP Yacht Support is the MAN! PM me for email addresses if you...

I love your enthusiasm for this historically significant 38th Voyage, but your poetic license is at work here. Melville sailed on the Acushnet...
For Those Interested The Mystic Seaport Website has lots of information on the voyage and the ship. My favorite is the Stowaway's Blog Mystic...
Don't rush down to the Navy Yard- she won't be there until next week, and open to the public next weekend. I was honored to have sailed as a guest...
I don't believe she will be in the lakes for long. I think she has a commitment this week, and will then be headed for the Med.
Just a coincidence, although the crew would have liked to stay!
Here's hoping!
My New Ride Hi Guys. There are big changes on the horizon for my fiancé, Kaveen, and me. After nine years aboard Rena (ex Curt C) we'll be...
We had to close down traffic in the other direction, since we took up all the available space in the lock. I think the drop was somewhere near...
