Bob thats a good price....before Sea Star we used to use another shipping company....It was about $10,000 southbound for a 30 foot boat.

I have about 10 pics from the run I will post as I have time.

Like Florida in the summer, storms can pop up in the BVI at any time. Towards the end of the day a storm was moving into the west end and I kinda like this pic of David outrunning it on our way to Leverick Bay to turn in our cards. We did not get wet.

Nice Renegade at Leverick Bay. We have 3 of them that run with us in our FMO club. Great looking boats.

Again this year we had a false start. When the first of two helicopters appeared some thought it was on. About 50 boats took off, mostly renegade boats not registered and then the chaos began. An air horn soon sounded so off we went in hot pursuit. Over the next 12 miles we picked them off one by one and Jay got a lot of good shots. By the time we got to Scrubb there were only about a half dozen boats ahead of us. Anyway it was all good fun.

This was the view from Scrubb looking back:

And of coarse my favourite pic with the girls. My buddy Ron from St Thomas commented, " Bob, I did not know you had so many lovely daughters !! LOL Ouch.
