S/V INTREPID II - Cape Dory Intrepid 40

My photo
Intrepid II is a Cape Dory Intrepid 40 sailboat, hull #2, designed by Chuck Paine and discovered by the Captain in Blue Hill Maine in 2006. The crew are Kelly (Captain) and Carol (Admiral and Blogger). In 2009 INTREPID II embarked on her West Coast journey from Victoria to San Francisco, the Baja Sur Peninsula and into the Sea of Cortez. In 2010/2011, we sailed from Guaymas, south to Bahia Banderas and back. In 2011/2012 we left Guaymas, headed south to La Paz, spent three weeks at anchor on our northward journey and rested on the hard in San Carlos. Her 4th, 5th and 6th seasons were Boat Projects related. Season 7 - an incredible amount of boat work - but no cruising. Season 8 - Tropical Storm Sergio toppled Intrepid II in San Carlos dry storage. A disappointing season of serious and costly repairs. Season 9 - continuing those repairs and still hopeful for cruising. 2024 - well cruising plans certainly have been dashed the past few seasons!

Wishing you a Joyful & Merry Christmas!




To all our cruising friends who are actually 'still cruising' or in the midst of preparing for another cruising season; to all those who sadly have to pick up the pieces from this past hurricane season; to all those who support the cruising community - Merry Christmas and thanks for your support and friendship.

 To our friends who have had to put their cruising adventures on hold, as we have, for varied reasons and challenges - may the coming year be the one in which your hurdles are overcome and your plans take hold once again.

 To our family and non-sailing friends, who continue to encourage and support us in all we do and still hope to accomplish - thank you and may your own dreams soon become reality.

The INTREPID II Crew
