Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
For tho’ from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.

Nice gathering last night , I think Snaggy might have stopped by to pay respects.
When the boats are in the water this spring a proper Bell 8 sailer send off is being
planned.


It was a good turn out. Chris was obviously loved by many and it was apparent everyone thought a lot of him.

I did this with my kids a number of years back when they were pre teen
Lubbers Quaters in the abacos, Watecolours cottages specifically, fly to Marsh, rent an Albury  -you can do whatever from there hopetown, tiloo cut, Petes pub, dive at the nat'l Park, Man o War, surf we never stopped from the moment of landing. Very reasonable < $5K
Mark and Patti at watercolours now have Cruise Abacos too, Cat Charters.

Last September I stayed a week at Hopetown,  wife and I  rented Sanctuary - Malone's place.  We were the only tourist on the island!  the community catered us, I was dubbed King David. Now - this is my favorite place in the Bahamas
