Welcome to retirement. It may not be all that is cracked up to be at times, but is still pretty good most of the time. I like your boat name. That is clever, with a double meaning. "We are going to see," with of course the obvious double meaning of "We are going to sea." Nice.
That's a good suggestion Ron. We will have time for longer trips such as that. We plan to first venture north in steps-a trip to Desolation Sound, then another to the Broughtons, etc, eventually making it to SE Alaska maybe summer after next. I think my boat was in a show or two. At the most recent Boats Afloat show there was a DeFever 49, which is the 46 with an integrated swimstep.I would suggest you start planning on a circumnavigation of Vancouver Island. That is what I did when I retired in 1999. It was and still is the most memorable trip I have done on a boat or any mode of transportation. I love the Defever 46. Is yours the one that was displayed at the Seattle boat shows a few years ago? I'll trade you... Ron
Thank you FlyWright! I'm looking forward to many trips in this beautiful boating destination.Congrats on your retirement, Dale. I've been retired from gainful federal employment for only 362 days (but who's counting?) and have been loving every bit of it. More time for boating is one of the best parts. You've sure got some beautiful waters to explore. Thanks for 34 years of civil service!!
Congrats
May you find retirement as exhausting I have.
