Dedicated Sailor
Our other pastime is a hole in the water .....a 35 foot sailboat name Haleakula which we’ve owned 22 years.
We live close to the Chesapeake so it is in a great location. We take at least 3 - 3 week trips a year usually one involving going to Newport Ri and the Long Island Sound as well as points north.
We usually travel about 250 miles off shore in the Atlantic once leaving Cape May to get north.
We both have just retired so the RV fulfills the other dream we’ve had in traveling for weeks/ months at a time. Sailing season is April - November with a 6 week period in July / August when it’s to damn hot on the Chessie.
This will be our first year with the 2500RL so we have a 6 week trip planned in the “ heat months to NY/ Vt/ NH , and Maine. After we winterize Haleakula at Thanksgiving, the another 6 -8 week trip.
We love the idea of boondocking or State/ National Parks when we aren’t in a mega RV park situation, it’s much like the sailboat where we rarely stay in a Marina and anchor our most of the time. Boat is extensively 12 volt with solar panels, so we are used to that lifestyle.
Our love of nature and the outdoors has driven us in this direction as well as having unlimited time now that retirement has come. Long range once we shakedown our RVing then trips to the West is next.Donna and Dave
