Sunday
Weather ha improved a bit, just the right amount of sun, wind still 20 to 25. Heading to San Pedro tomorrow AM. From here it is all inside the reef so soling is a breeze. Got some anchoring info from a passing cruiser so it should be no problem. I will probably only stay a day or two . Then head back here, Cay Caulker. The Lobster fest is on the 15th and I think may be worth waiting for. It will be the first day of Lobster season, a very big deal in these parts. I will need to get to Cucumber beach Marina a couple of days before Diane arrives on the 18th. I got m Genoa back up today with the help of some guys in a dingy on there way to there boat.

Chuck and Guinney, Glad to hear you are both safe and dry in Belize. I will be arriving on the 18th if all is well. It looks like I will also have smooth sailing so I do plan to be there very soon!! I love you both, Diane

Forget to tell you that our Slevin is walking like a pro! He's not quite 10 months old but he is really moving. He walked over to me today and gave me a smile and a big hug. I think he loves his grandma!! I know he will want to go sailing so you'd better be ready for him. See you soon, Diane

This is Joe trying toget a weather update from the local bar tender, Ha. I made im pose for this picture. Joe is a Boy Scout. i am continually amazed at the careing, smart and nice people I run into , although I am not sure how smart it is to sail a 35 foot hobie cat from Tulsa OK to his place in Honduras. After our night getting to Belize I think Joe may agree. Happy sailin Joe, I consider you a good friend.


I made it to belize. The jouney was epic for sure. The entrance to Ambergis was raging. Joe went in because he could not turn around. I was not sure I could fight6 my way back out but I made it. Came in about 15 miles farther south, backtraked to Cay Caulker and met up with joe

I got some stuff entern out of order so read the Punta Allen section again to ctatch up to here

Chuck and I made it to Belize today but Chuck couldn't make it thru the cut so he's going 30 miles south to the commercial waterway. I would have gone with him but the seas were too rough to turn back. A rough ride but we are in belize baby!!!!!!
