[C320-list] Self-quarantining at anchor

[Jack Brennan]

Interesting and scary times.

Our spring cruise has been delayed/canceled, like everyone else’s plans for everything. The Keys and the Bahamas are closed to visitors, no bars or restaurants are open, parks are shut, etc.

So our cruising club is heading to a semi-isolated anchorage off an uninhabited island in Tampa Bay. The idea is to self-quarantine en masse. You want to visit a friend? Dinghy over, tie up to their stern and chat. Our ages range from the 50s to the 80s, so we have to be careful.

I hope all of you get through this OK. Sailing is a great way to avoid the crowds. My wife and I took a long sail out into the Gulf of Mexico yesterday just for a change of scenery and to take advantage of a 15-knot beam wind.
