We made it to San Juan and taxing out for EIS. Silver was only 40 minutes late which I consider basically ontime. American flight from Charlotte left early and arrived early! Pretty good swell hitting the North Shore of Puerto Rico flying in. Hope it’s a bit better in the BVI.

We are in the covid test area. We were at the end of the line and did not get pulled out in the first group of 48 hour people. Had to wait for those that needed testing to get results. Binox tests accepted with no issues and insurance never mentioned. On the boat without any issues and Riteway showed up exactly on time with provisions. Get the dive gear on in the morning and we are out of here!

George, you're saying they made you wait for those who needed testing, even though you did not? Did they give a reason? We're hoping to get out of there quickly so we can get to our house before dark.

We ended up at the back of the line and waited tell things cleared out a bit before going to the paperwork desk. That cost us about 30 minutes.

George, hope to meet you at the end of your sail. I hope there is someone at the end of our sail to enjoy our leftovers and enjoy the ice maker to hand off. Wouldn’t it be great to get this ice maker handed off for the rest of the season. I will be at the Moorings dock early morning 12/12.

Getting ready to leave dock. So far a great start. Boat looks good and everything is arriving on time. Order from Riteway was 100% except for some very moldy bagels. Tanks arrived at 9 am. Even though they are busy the Moorings is doing a much better job than my June and July trips. Staff all seem to be working hard. Off the dock shortly, sails up, engine off, good music and the tensions just melt away!

Glad all is well George. We came in last night (EIS). I0 minutes from deplaning to taxi.

We were off the dock at 9 and headed to Saba. Hope to see you out there this week - we are on Moon Dance (Lagoon).

We will look for you. We are on a Moorings 5000 flying a Marine Corps flag named Dream Cat II. We are at Cooper tonight. We snorkeled the Indians and then dived Blonde Rock. The Indians had really poor visability. Blonde Rock is a very underrated dive and was great. Not really sure where we are going tomorrow. Planning some fishing tomorrow so might do a early dive and then hit the south drop down to Norman.
