Alive and well in St. L

Got down to St. Lucia late Monday evening after long flights and a few delays. The crate with all my

cruising gear arrived yesterday and should be cleared through customs by Friday (hopefully). The

late crate gives the Charter Base time to finish some leftover phase-out items that would allow the

Bella Gatta to leave in good shape. In the meantime, the locals are very friendly and the beer cold enough.
