I long for the solitude
of a sunset at sea,
and the chill of the breeze
coming in with the eve.
For the motion of my boat,
as she swings on her rode,
and the beauty of the stars,
in the evenings last glow.

Victory at Sea

"Victory awaits those who have everything in order? People call that luck.  Defeat is certain for those who have forgotten to take the necessary precautions in time ? That is called bad luck."  Ronald Amundson 14 December 1911
We will contact Camachee Yacht Yard today to find out if the SSB install and maintenance items are on schedule.  If so, we depart for Llyrical and St. Augustine on Thursday with departure down the ICW on Saturday. More provisioning going on over the week-end.  Sandra now is expressing concern that we have more for the freezer than it will hold.  I am expressing concern that we will never be able to eat/drink our way through all the food and booze we are putting aboard.  On the other hand, I believe we are short of wine.  I purchased a folding hand truck meant to help fueling, water and reprovisioning.  We'll see... - John
