labatt will become famous soon enough
Now in Warderick Wells, Bahamas

What a great week! Allens Cay, Normans Cay and now Warderick Wells. Internet is not overly available so I've been restricted to e-mails on the sat phone for a while. They allow 100MB per day for $10 here in Warderick Wells, and we're at 90MB used after 2 hours! Anyway, things are going great, it's absolutely beautiful down here, and the Rocna rocks. The snorkeling is wonderful, the people we've met are great, and I have few complaints - mostly revolving around having to do boat maintenance while surrounded by crystal clear water. We've put a few entries on our blog, but pictures will not go up until we have better Internet available. That should hopefully be next week some time. Anyway, for those who are thinking about cruising, just do it! It's much better than I expected!

Chris

P.S. I wish Sailnet would create a low graphics, or even text only, ver ylow bandwidth version of the website. Then I could access it via my satphone!

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
