TODAY was the last cart full of “stuff”
for Coyaba. We have been here one week and Paul has come out with me
everyday to help provision and today he said “I can't believe
it! This is the very last cart I have to bring from the car to
Coyaba”. There were about 12 cart loads this past week!! We
are ready to leave when Mother Nature allows. We will sit here at
Sunset Bay until Sunday then off to Lake Worth; Monday, Hollywood,
FL, then God willing, we travel the Gulf Stream on Tuesday for
Bimini! Of course as any boater knows, one should never have a
schedule as Mother Nature does not. We have guests arriving in
Staniel Cay, Exumas January 25th, so ideally Coyaba should
be there.
Our stuffed fridge, every nook and cranny takes on new meaning when you're boater |
BROMELIAD is my new “pet plant”.
Remember last year's journey I had a mini Palm Tree, well I am
nurturing a different plant this time. The plants are very unique and
beautiful down here compared to Ontario's growing season for the
summer. The “garden centres” are always open here!
A colourful plant, reminds me when we went to destination resorts |
Hull speed
The maximum theoretical velocity of a given boat through the water, which is 1.5 times the square root of its waterline length in feet, divided by the distance to port in miles, minus the time in hours to sunset cubed.
Jibe
Course change which causes the boom to sweep rapidly across the cockpit; also, frequent type of comment made of observers of this manoeuvre.
Lanyard
A light line attached to a small article so that it can be secured somewhere well out of reach.
