*grumble* *putter* *putter* SHUTDOWN SHUTDOWN

ok sorry I didn't get the vid on but I couldn't figure out my camcorder. but I did get some really awesome pics! but I don't have my camera cord so you wont get those until later :) so for now I will tell you about my day today. ok so we sailed (motored) over night last night and I woke up this morning to the engine dieing, we fixed it. then later we were motoring down a waterway and had to dodge like five 100 or 120 ft tankers. and that was scary. but wait!! there's more. our engine had gone out again so we had to put the sails up to ovoid being run over by the tankers. then we had to be towed by a tow boat to the nearest marina. so right now I am sitting in my boat relaxing after a hard days dodging session. oh yeah and before I forget, last night while we were motoring we pasted whithin 150 yards a of big tanker so that was kinda freaky.


alright so I'll get those pics on in a couple of days,
later,
Cameron

Gale

Well last night I went through my first gale (for those of you who don't know what that is, it's wind blowing at at least 35 Kt.) and now the weather is suppose to get worse :(. now we have a high winds warning through today and ending at midnight, and they are calling for winds up to 45 to 50 Kt. which is the equivalent of 55 to 60 mph!!!
you guys (and girls) should have heard the wind last night it was sooo loud, and the boat was rocking back and forth side to side.
and I should have a video soon so you can see and hear the weather outside I will hopefully have it later today, but I have to figure out how to get videos to lode onto blogger


so,
ttfn,

Not gone yet...

I know I'm not really gone yet but some of you have been asking and asking me when I will start my blog. so here it is. and right now I am sitting on my new boat, rocking back and forth with winds blowing at like 20 Kt. and it's really cold (mostly because of the wind) I will be putting pics and vids on so everybody can see the boat and the places we will be


But, for right now, see you later
