Many years ago on a charter trip to one of the remote bases of CSY on one of their luxury at the time CSY 44's. 3 unmarried guys and their dates or girlfriend of the time.

One boat veteran decides to bring a higher maintenance girlfriend for the trip. Poor girl is new to the group and everything about travel the trip. Her date never checks and can carry his bag under his arm on most excursions. Somehow she was convinced to leave behind the blow dryer, curling irons, lighted travel makeup mirror and a host of other must have to her items... there will be no space on the boat and no electricity anyway. The last flight leg to the island was on DC-3 with rope seat belts. One guy had a small outboard as carry on.

We land in paradise CSY meets us with an old truck or van and take us on a great to all but one ride over the mountain and to the base. Beer, Rums who knows what most of us where drinking. The new girlfriend has road dust in her hair, mouth and on her makeup job. Miserable and scared to death. There was not internet back then to Google things out. She is convinced we are being kidnaped into the rain forest for whatever kidnappers do. The rest of us are having a ball at some expense to new date.

We hit the base and dinner is already ready. No, you do not order they just served what is cooked.... More fun had by at least some.

Finally back to the two cabin boat where we will rotate the couple without the cabin for the night.

New date is mad at all of us. MAD and miserable!

In silence she goes through the near dark CSY 44.... Until she discovers a 110 outlet. New Girlfriend starts screaming and cursing about our lying tricks to keep her life support grooming accessories at home! Demanded for days we find a store where she could buy a blowdryer and curly iron.
