Journeying from Charleston to New York: An 800-Mile Adventure Along the US East Coast

The past few weeks have been a slow cruise up the US East Coast from Charleston to Long Island Sound via Georgetown and New York. It also marked 1,500 miles cruising since Fort Lauderdale, in part to confirm the remedial work on our drives and remaining systems. Real highlights have been hiding amongst the commercial fishing boats in small working ports and, latterly, New York, both for the utter contrast in its cityscapes and accidentally landing in the same marina as the base for "Sail GP" (https://sailgp.com), the Formula 1 of the yachting world. All is going well so far, with the bonus of family joining and meeting some old and new friends along the way.
Rather than going into detail, it's better to rely on the visuals of a motor yacht with a working regime that performs as she should.

Many exquisite images there, Chris. Over here, we'd say, "livin' the dream".
