RTIA is coming up soon, it kicks off July 2 at Fiddle Cay with the Stranded Naked Cheeseburger in Paridise party. It is probably the best free party ever. I have been spending money like crazy getting ready,new to me 10ft rib,new outboard for the dingy,new ram mic for the helm station, new teak and holly cabin sole,new throttle lever,new cabin lights,new fan for aft bunk. I think we will be eating alot of peanutbutter sandwiches. We will be taking are crew along with us for the first time this year, that means 6 of us on the boat for 2 weeks,should be interesting. Keep me in your thoughts, my crew is my wife,2 other women, a 13 year old girl on foredeck, and my 10 year old granddaughter. It could be paridise or it could turn into some thing else, I think it will be alot of fun. Our crossing will be on the 26th and I plan on checking in at West End then going on to Mangrove for the night. Then it's on to Foxtown for a day of shore leave, before making our way to GreenTurtle. I hope to have lots of pictures to post when we return.

Enjoy safe passages and great times, Carl!

When you say your are crossing on the 26th, I hope you mean "weather permitting." Fortunately, this time of year there are seldom any winds with northerly components to make the gulf stream crossing a problem.
