Edd I cannot speak for others but decided to not only give up racing due to crew issues, ect (never really got into cruising) but sailing as well. After 36 years of owning the same boat decided to sell our C&C 39TM as the kids are grown, gone and have no interest in owning a big boat nor in the time and expense required to maintain a classic and keep her in Bristol condition. This was a very hard decision to make but now is the time to move on to another phase of life. We have the old girl listed with a very good friend and will allow Honey to only go to an owner that can afford her as well as maintain her in the same fashion that we have since 1976 and she is not to be sold to anyone in or near Savannah as I do not want to have see her once she has been sold...Good luck with your decision to cruise Jack Fitzgerald HONEY US12788 Savannah, GA In a message dated 12/17/2012 4:30:22 P.M.

Listers, Though I thought this day would never come (and I'm not saying it has yet), but given the difficulties in lining up crew, keeping them committed on a regular basis, and the costs, I'd like to know people's experiences in transitioning from racing their C&C to a life of cruising. Anyone here done it? Are you happy you did? I'm very curious to hear your stories, including the successes and regrets, if any. All the best, Edd Edd M.
