I'm always wondering how I can get money directly to those in need. Donations to many national organizations may not get any money where you want it to go. A "You Caring" web site has been set up for donations to go directly to CYOA staff who are struggling to survive after St. Thomas was ravaged by two CAT-5 hurricanes in two weeks. They will need lots of help in the next few months. Here's a link to the donation site:  YOU CARING FOR CYOA

Twanger - she was bent, but not broken, after Irma. Maria did not do further exterior damage. I spoke with Capt. Jay this morning and he is working the process to get the CYOA fleet and our boat ready for the season.
  Cheers, RickG
