hello all
I recently bought myself a 1971 Morgan 35' sailboat.. there is a possibility I will be transferred with my job from Indiana to Florida in the next few months... and I could be moving to Tampa area... I am seeking advice or help in getting my sailboat down to Tampa when the time is right... I have not sailed the east coast... all my blue water sailing has been down around Florida near the keys... I am wondering how long it will take to sail from Newport news, Virginia to Tampa, Florida ?.. where are the best stops to make for supplies, fuel, and not expensive overnight stays ?..
when I get ready to make the trip, I might also be needing a crew to go with me on my adventure ... my son wants to go, but not sure what his college schedule will be then when I go.. as the time approaches and my plans finalize, I will post more..
sincerely
Jess
