The thought of cruising off to an exotic port of call or a secluded anchorage located in a remote corner of the globe is a dream held by most with a love for time aboard. For the vast majority the cruising reality lies somewhat closer to home, in places that offer an escape from the everyday yet within reasonable distance of supplies and services. In North America, many locations lie within the continent's corners. Pacific crews head north and more and more private boats venture out to discover the rewards of the Inside Passage each season. In the temperate winter months they head south of the border to the Sea of Cortez and the Mexican Gold Coast. Self sufficient sailors have enjoyed this region for decades and popularity continues to grow each season.
Those on the eastern seaboard tend to set sail downeast each summer - places like the Elizabeth Islands, Fishers & Block Island, and Maine's Far Reaches offer stunning empty anchorages, and beautiful beaches. Winter finds the Atlantic sailor longing for the warm turquoise waters and cays of the Bahamas and Carribbean.
