Caribbean Dreamin'

Here's a go at this whole Blog thing. I like to think of it more as an online Ship's Log. I thought it would be a good idea to start a place where people could write back and be interactive with our Website. So, Please, any comments, questions, input, ideas, or just to say hello, don't hesitate. We'd love to hear from you. 

Caribbean Update

Current Location: Tortola, BVI

Weather: Northeast breezes 10-15 kts. Partly cloudy. 82F/28C degrees. 

This Week: Varnishing projects. Yippie! Yesterday I got a nice thick coat down on the bowsprit just in time for some rain clouds to roll in and leave rain droplet textures all over the wet varnish. A new method of non-skid perhaps? Unexpected rain showers are one of the few perks of tropical weather. Oh well, try again tomorrow.

  1. Glad to see the old girl being so well taken care of. I sailed on her as a student at Landmark in the mid '80s. I recall spending many hours polishing the Brass :-).
    Are you planning any stopes in New england where she can be seen? I would love to see her again.
    Thanks
