We are driving back to Minnesota from Rhode Island in a rental van with all our gear. We’ve moved off of Guidance and put her on the market in Newport, RI. Guidance was a great boat for us, and we think she’ll serve her next owners well.
Our next boat will be a catamaran. All boats are a series of compromises; catamarans are no exception. However, catamarans offer more space for storage, living, and guests. They are also more comfortable at anchor.
Some highlights from our trip in no particular order:
- Friendly, generous people at each of our stops
- Sailing through the night
- The Gaspé Peninsula
- Dolphins!
- Quiet anchorages
- Seeing the industry on the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River
Thank you for reading and following along on our journey.
