It’s May, and for us that means it’s time to deliver Avalanche home 1600 miles from Antigua to Jamestown, RI.  Jake and I leave May 17th for Antigua with our bags filled with spare parts, snacks for those midnight watches and winter clothes for the part of the trip north of the Gulf Stream.  It will take us about a week to provision, prepare meals, check out and do maintenance work on all the systems, put away all the cruising gear and set up all the delivery safety equipment.  The crew will join us at the end of the week and we plan to lose the docklines after breakfast on Saturday May 24th and set sail for home.

There is a possibility we might write something as we make our preparations.  That will be a function of how well organized we are.  If not, we will definitely be writing each day as we make our way north.  We hope you will join us.
