Re: [airdog07] Virgin Islands
hmm... that sounds good. but I need money.
the goal with the sailboat was to do a world BASE tour, sail around to norway, brazil, Thailand, etc and BASE everything. it would be AWESOME to land next to the Argonauta under canopy.
HOWEVER, our boat is shit. the three of us bought it for 17,000 USD, student loan for me, and Navy bonuses for the other two guys. (one is a BASE jumper) we owe about 3 grand in slip fees that we have been a bit behind on in our old marina. sailboats need fuel now and then, and its $500 to fill her up.
On the last trip we blew up the mainsail in a storm as well as breaking a shroud almost losing the mast, and the motor took a crap on us. we need 5000 $ to fix her, and that wont happen until I get another job or the TBI scholarship starts to consider open ocean sailing an educational experience. the later probably wont happen.
