Caribbean Madness: Salt Whistle Bay
http://caribbeanmadness.blogspot.com/2010/02/salt-whistle-bay.html
Wednesday, February 3, 2010. The Swedes were around for a couple of great sessions yesterday at Salt Whistle, I was sunburned and exhausted by10:30 AM. We had 20 kts of breeze and waist high kickers inside the reef, and chest high over the reef. I re-acquinted myself with backrolls and jumping on relatively flat water. We headed off to a nice little restaurant on the hill for a nice lunch of red snapper and conch for lunch, which served as our dinner. The hell here never ends. Where are we now?

But Buckaroo Bonsai was fond of this catch phrase: "No matter where you go, there you are! The truth seems to be in between. The chan...

Friday, October 31, 2008. What this means to me is that I am on watch from 10 PM until 4:00 AM, but I get tomorrow off. What it means to you is that I am all caught up at the moment, having fixed all that we know is broken, and chose to share this time with you. That there will be enough wind. We set minimum goals for progress for the next two days, sufficient to avoid the gale. Thus far we have managed to put some "in the bank", meaning we are ahead of that schedule. At the present rate, we shou...Paul ...
