New member - Sadly boatless

[Dawnlee]

Hello,

My name is Dawn Lee. I am a mom, an author, and a transplant (FL to TN) who desperately misses boats and the water. I spent a lot of time living aboard (in the Keys, South FL and the Caribbean) growing up, and I miss it. I currently travel between TN and Apalachicola, FL several times a year and would like to find a boat that I can moor in the Apalachicola area for extended stays and eventually some moderate cruising. I've always been in love with trawlers, particularly Grand Banks, but I've recently (thanks to a fellow trawler-loving friend) been clued in to Albins. Right now, I'm trying to narrow down my choices, and I look forward to learning a great deal here.

Welcome, Dawn! Boat shopping/researching - what could be more fun? Glad to have you aboard.

Welcome Dawn, I know the feeling. We moved from FL ( and living aboard ) to TN also. We just didn't feel right without a boat, so got a smaller one ( Albin 27) to tinker with and travel the inland waters for a change. Where are you in TN? Ben
