I talked to the marina this AM...they said now that a Monday launch is possible if thing go well $$$$. The plan last Monday was to launch tomorrow(Friday) I feel sorry for our guests, as we were planning on sailing somewhere, but they are stuck in a motel with us. Vicki and Tim and Barb are heading for the beach now. I've got a meeting with a local satellite phone dealer. That probably won't be cheap......but it appears it will be cheaper in the long run rather than dealing with multiple cell phone dealers as we pass through the Bahama's and beyond.....TTFN
