Join us as we continue sailing down the Florida coast. We are leaving Crystal River, after enjoying a great couple of weeks there, and heading to Venice, Florida.
Actually, being out of sight of land doesn’t bother me. The only thing that really worries me on long passages are unpredictable changes in weather. We try to plan overnight passages for times when the weather is good, but sometimes there will be an unpredicted storm. Some big supercells will be moving at over 50mph, and there is no way to get out of the way if it’s coming for you. That’s the thing that worries me.
I don't know if I would like being out of sight of land for that length of time.
