You are quite correct. If there was a glitch in the transfer of ownership of W2, a contingency plan was to continue to sail onward to Charleston, SC.
Since the captain and family have a permanent home in Charleston, as well as some of the crew, it would be nice to enjoy a bit of R and R in familiar surroundings.
Depending on how things work out, there may be a "family" reunion in the Caribbean aboard the W2 this winter. Included on the attending guest's list will be the present owner's first grandchild, due in early winter. Another generation of sea captains. The mother-to-be literally took her first toddler's steps on the deck of a previously owned sailing craft, many years before the dream of acquiring the first Windy was fulfilled.
It's supposed to go down to about 30° F in Camelot on the Lake tonight.
