I predict that Mr. B. will ultimately purchase Leverick. It seems to me that it would solve many logistical problems that are connected with owing an island (even more so with two islands in close proximity). Examples are transporting the workers and guests back and forth, the need for parking vehicles on land, boats at the marina and like the previous post mentioned extra housing possibilities for the occasional "overflow" of guests or workers.... RIght now he does not have control of the happenings at Leverick, and in the big picture it would probably be a small price to pay for a lot of additional convenience. He seems to have no problem finding good managers to oversee his various operations, I am sure Leverick would be no different. I see the day coming when we will all just have to hang out over on Prickly Pear or we may even have to "go to the dogs" !
