2004 Sailing Plan

Sailing, more so than with other types of travel, is very susceptible to the weather.  Not enough wind or too much wind will keep us from traveling even though we are bored and ready to move on.  So, we are going to stay very flexible with regards to where we go and when, but like I always say, "you gotta have a plan!".
