Brian and Lainie, I saw the post on your recent misfortune. We spent 5 years full-time cruising a 44' cat (40,000 miles on just this boat), 2 years in the South Pacific and some time in and around Niue. Our hearts go out to you both. I am in California for the time being and can offer seasoned cruiser internet help or other virtual logistical support if that is of any help. Let me know, Rand +1 760 613 9000 rand at pipp com
