Keeping up with the Jones's

Blue sky day with Mount Desert Island just visible and Sila's odometer tics a milestone. Average US vehicle covers 12,000 miles per year, so we are keeping up over the past three years... Feeling grateful for all we have experienced as we sail into the waters where I first learned to sail. - Christopher

  6. Will you be showing a map of your whole trip on the blog?
    I'm sure you have kept a map log too.
    It would be great to trace your "boat steps" when you are back on land.

  8. Does that mean you never turned the GPS off?

    1. Sort of. We always have the GPS on when we are moving and when we are anchored. We do turn it off when we are in a marina or when Sila is on the hard.
