Quiz for today.........


OK mariners,  our position is N25 07.935'   W80 25.994'    Where are we now??  The first one with the right answer gets a shot of Don Q!   :->


We left Kismet today because a  cold front is moving into the area.  We were going to hang out for another day but with strong westerlies shifting to northerlies we decided it was better to go our separate ways and catch up with each other in a week or so in Marathon.

Meanwhile back at the ranch (Grey Hound), we are sitting exactly were those co-ordinates are.    ;-)   We're waiting for Tom, Sue and Erika K and Jean and Tom A.   The K's are coming down for the Tradewinds Regatta and  with any luck Tom A will be able to give Dick some (a lot of) pointers on catching fish!

Today we had a very pleasant downwind sail (24 nm ) under headsail and are now tucked in safe and sound.  

As usual we had another gourmet meal.......... this time prepared by Le Chef D`eek and as
 you will see in the picture ............he is already practicing for the internationally known holiday......exclusively celebrated on Binnacle Island ..........observed sometime during the last week of each August................It is....................HIKE  'EM UP DAY!!!!!!!!!!!
