I don’t think they will be involved since the tanker was Belize flagged and it happened in Bahamian waters. Utopia is US flagged but as a...
Probably...
I asked here at SCYC if that was the same boat which brought fuel here and apparently it isn’t. They don’t expect issues.
I know. We moved to another anchorage yesterday afternoon a few miles away and it’s held fine at 11:1 although just 10kts wind. not that...
True. I wonder how many of these are used between Nassau and the family island. interestingly neither the Guardian or the Tribune has reported...

Not sure how a yacht can rear end a fuel tanker, even a small one. Somebody’s got some explaining to do....
thanks. I have some people flying in Jan 4th here in Staniel we can get parts flown in on Makers Air out of FTL when needed. Just a bit of...
Didn’t think about it but I can definitely hear the gen making a different noise. Will try next time it happens
indeed
Not yet. Curative which we ve used for the last 18 months now offers fast RT-PCR test at a handful of locations. problem is that with the...
Thanks David. You didn’t have to apologize we all have our moments. Appreciate it any way
