Bay Pelican
Moderator Emeritus
It’s time. After ten years in the Eastern Caribbean, we are heading back to Florida. While we are in good health we have aged as have our friends. We have always known that we had to return someday as a trawler cannot be sold in the Eastern Caribbean (it is a sailboat world). The journey back is long (we are planning on 25 some jumps island hopping) and will take two to three months. Most of our long time friends down here of the same generation have sold or left, and we do not want to be the last, nor find that we no longer have the health to make the trip back.
We have two fiends joining us as crew for the trip. In addition the other trawler in our long time group, a Nordhavn 46, is buddy boating with us back to Florida. Our plan is to store Bay Pelican in Florida and list her for sale. Until she is sold we will cruise Florida and the Bahamas. 20 years with Bay Pelican and we have loved her and our travels and made many friends.
