Cruising the ICW NY to Florida on Venture

Postby hardchines » June 17th, 2021, 9:44 pm

I hope to start a trip to Florida on my small Carver that I put together a couple of years ago, If interested you can read and view the post under the project area on this forum under the title "small boat big big project. I hope to post pics or videos and a short note daily or weekly once I get the trip started, I hope to launch and start the trip by the end of June just thought I would set up this page now and I may try some uploads to see if this will work with a hot spot and phone.Hope some folks follow along!

Good For YOU!!!!
I'm in CNY as well and will keep an eye on your progress. Our plan is to do the same at some point, we
have friends in The Keys that we want to venture down to then continue onto the Great Loop. Best of luck! Just make sure you get under way before Oct if you have to travel The Erie Canal LOL
