It took 42 hrs.
NO GPS or radars etc.
I had 2 compasses, "most" of the charts, an RDF and a VHF radio. Plus the desire to get to New York!
Long story!
pp.

what kind of a ride was it? WOT ? or cruising along the coast at 40 mph?

If I remember right, years ago a guy from NJ showed up at Pantera to pick up his 24.He had no car or truck just a one way ticket from NJ to Fla. Maybe Pepe,Joe or Smarty can tell the story
