Damn... gonna have to change my plans..... AGAIN.....

[boatman61]

On a more serious note however...
If any of you guys are down this way and in need of an ace canvas and sail repair person....
Do yourself a favour and check out Noemie at Sellerie du Pont... just before the French side bridge entrance... purple door next to the Pizza place...
Exceellent work and very reasonably priced..

Hey DOJ, what's the scale and projection of your chart? Cartographic minds want to know ...

Flexibility of plan as conditions change is a high virtue according to Shackleton as distilled thru Beth & Evans.

Parts of the world seem to be missing. Is there more pages to the chart set?

[boatman61]

Nice one DOJ.... am having it printed up later...
Cheers... notice no pubs listed tho... you been talking to Atoll...??

[boatman61]

Well..... thats it.. just cleared out and sail for Panama early am tomorrow...
Stores are enough for a non-stop once out into the Pacific so all is good... elec's and motors are ticking over nicely... crew has recovered from injuries in the knockdown and my lips and other bits are nearly back to normal after the days of handsteering.... sun seems much more fierce than in the past... never burned so bad I bled before...
Getting old really sucks....

[atoll]

have a good one,watch out for the windy bits near the columbian coast,best to stay 100+ miles off shore before altering for panama.

have a few contacts in panama if you need them when you get there

im off on a road trip with virtual vagabond tommorow pm to look at a boat in holland.

cheers alex
