Our 2011 cruise season is in full swing.  We have cruised north to Hilton Head Island, SC until Nov. ’11.  Then back to South Florida—-this time probably on the East Coast.  2010 Bahama cruise completed.

The Boat

MOONSTRUCK is a 42′ Sabreline hardtop express

cruiser.  She has two staterooms and an enclosed

bridge area. She can cruise at up to 27 knots with

her twin 500hp Yanmar diesel engines.  She has a

 12.5kw electric generator and an inverter.  This

 allows all the comforts of home while aboard.

Fuel capacity is 450 gal. and water capacity

is 160 gal.  The hailing port on the transom is

Charleston, SC. The boat may be anywhere on

the east coast at any given time.  We spend much

of our time in SC andFL with runs up to the

 Chesapeake in summer and fall.

   The Crew

Lou is a retired teacher.  Don is a real estate

 developer and builder who should be retired,

 but isn’t.  However, with modern

 communications we can work where we are. 

 Thus, we are not full time cruisers.  We live

 in the TN and GA mountains and boat on

the coast.  It is the best of both worlds.
