Hi all,
New to the forum, and hoping for some advice from experienced mariners.
Wife and I currently have a 29’ cruiser which we use on the St. Lawrence here in Ontario Canada.
As we get closer to retirement are considering a swap to a diesel trawler in the 36 - 45 ft range and were thinking of cruising down the eastern seaboard of Canada/USA and on to Cuba, Bahamas, Jamaica and the rest of the Caribbean.
As it will be just the two of us, the determining factor will be open water safety.
Some modifications would probably be necessary to make long range cruising possible.
Would prefer solar charging to maintain batteries and propane appliances.
Any advice or past experience with this type of cruising would be much appreciated
