   Well it's only taken me one month to recover from my abysmal performance in the EC to again begin planning another adventure. Last November I sailed with my sailing partner, Birch to the Dry Tortugas and sank on the return trip to Key West. Birch will deny it, but he quickly withdrew his interest in sailing with  me in the 2013 EC.

   Has that experience changed my opinion on going again... no and this time my Mary Lynne (shore team) is wanting to join me on this trip. So, yes we're going in the next week or so and this time hopefully we'll not sink this time.

    

   We're planning on a 3 day trip w/ two over-nights at the fort/park.

   Cheers

   That sounds like a very interesting trip.  Looks like about 67 miles one way in open water and some prohibited / restricted areas.  What were the circumstances of your sinking?  How far out were you?

   JustAnotherSailor,

   Was your sinking situation a bit like this?

   I did not know we were being filmed? Yes, that was me acting very calm. I wrote a full report in a prior report back in Nov/Dec. Look it up... it is a good read.
