SY Angel of London

Berry Islands: Heading East across the Bank there is a long passage which requires heading out before dawn so as not to arrive in pitch black. (The days seem to be real short with sun rising at around 06:00 and setting at 17:20). Crossing the Bank during darkness is not recommended because the navigational lights are not that reliable. The inoperable remains of the Northwest Channel light can only be seen during the day. It was destroyed by a jackass (motor) boater who used the actual position of the marker as his waypoint.

About:	We just love living in the marine environment which enables us to "sea" our lives from a different perspective. We continue to seek to free ourselves from misguided concepts of success such as "status" and "net worth". [...] More
Extra:	When I heard the learn'd astronomer; When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me; When I was shown the charts and the diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them; When I, sitting, heard the astronomer, where he lectured with much applause in the lecture-room, How soon, [...] unaccountable, I became tired and sick; Till rising and gliding out, I wander'd off by myself, In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time, Look'd up in perfect silence at the stars. Walt Whitman 1892 More
