All, Last weekend we did a 4 day charter on a Leopard 39 out of Miami. First time sailing out of Miami, in the Keys, on a charter or a cat!
It was one of the best vacations we ever had, despite a lack of wind much of the time! Went from Miami to Key Biscayne to Key Largo mostly in the Bay and then back on the ocean side. The Leopard is an interesting boat, with all lines lead to clutches and winches at the helm. One winch is electric. It is surprisingly heavy at 20,000 pounds, and needs 10 knots to sail at a reasonable speed. it was great having all of the living space on one level. Our boat had a generator, so we A/C on the hook - a real luxury! Not a boat I would own on the Chesapeake, but a great charter! -- Joel 301 541 8551
