Following up on this conversation. We did take P101 & P102 courses at Southwest Florida Yachts during the first week in June. Captain John was wonderful. Gained so much knowledge and confidence. The marina is Beautiful and the area is ideal for cruising, even in the midst of pandemic...
Sounds like a great idea and one that I will add to our notes - we have several years before completely taking off, so this may be one of our 'working vacations' in advance. Thank you !
Long time reader, first time posting here...

Thank you all for a very useful forum. This has been our go-to site as we gather info for our Great Loop adventure. We are a couple in our 50's who live in Charlotte, NC and are planning to get a 'starter' trawler for a few years...

A couple who have been documenting their Great Loop adventure, including costs, starting with their purchase and modification of a Bayliner 4788. Pretty useful info.
