Yeh, south cruise be good. I was keen for it when the idea was thrown about last time... Tail end of the year is always flat out, but I'd do my damndest make it for part of the trip. Hook up with the Albany crew and make it a fun one!
No chance of me planning it for this year - but if no-one else does it, I'll give it a shot for next year. After summer settles down would be good....
