Would like to find consistent crew for the whole trip from Rhode Island to Florida. Once we reach the Keys we plan to be there through the winter as we finalize logistics for the final cut-away for long-term cruising (i.e. house sale) ... crew may stay on once we reach the Keys for as long as everyone is getting along. The definite tentative plan is Keys this winter, then to set sail for Scandinavia next summer, back to the Carribean next winter, and onward where the wind takes us....
