means "cloud splitter") and Chapter Two a 45 catamaran made it from
Kew West over to Havana, around the corner of Cuba down the endless
South shore thereof and finally fetched Montego Bay where we have enjoyed

There have been a variety of social activities, MBYC is a wonderful oasis in
the middle of very busy Montego Bay. Some crew have enjoyed shore outings
some crew are occupied tidying up some loose ends in Ransoms mechanical
department (don't ask).
Fortunately, one of our fellow cruisers is very well versed in these matters and
as an admitted Type A personality is happy to spend hours with me fixing things
that are way above my pay grade.
Pip and Daphne were invited to race with MBYC fleet today, saw them start, don't know
who won. Ceci is working on blog, I am working on alternator.
Provisioning day tomorrow, skippers meeting and cocktails in evening, then
10am start on Tuesday heading South hopefully with Easterly winds down to the
San Blas Islands, 3 1/2 days under sail.
Watch this space and we will fill it when we can.
