    Still here El Presidente, but life keeps throwing a wrench into my leisure time.
    All/Most ships have fled south for the winter, so maybe someone can fill this gap in with some Caribbean spotting?. I will be heading to Cabo to do some Marlin fishing soon (catch & release) unless the Captain has other ideas.

    I was thinking the same last night when I read Carl's post. LOL The upper half of the West Coast isn't likely very high on anyone's priority list of "spots to visit in October/November/etc." :D

    Yup, it gets pretty depressing with all the rain and such. I start loosing it around January and need a southern fix.
    I hope they lift the "camera ban" in the Caribbean soon :)

    Hey Out My Window, have you seen the new 84' West Bay down there in Coal Harbour yet? Should be there somewhere.

    That looks to be around 70' something. This one should have an enclosed upper deck and have come in on Wed. Looking for some good photos, as I am building a model of her(only have limited info).

    OK, yes, I can see the very distinctive SonShip sat domes. She's docked on the outer dock behind two trawler yachts. If I catch her moving I will shoot her with my Canon.

    Glad it's that type of Canon, not cannon, or she would lose those domes!

    Rayburns new Kathleen M is a beauty.
    I guess she along with a handfull of other yachts are accumulating in Coal Harbour for a Dockwise transport to a warmer clime?

    LOL, yes it’s a mad exodus before the next rainstorm hits. The helicopters are evacuating the guests and crew; I fear the yachts will be abandoned.
    I hope they sandbagged the airport, so I can make my escape !!

    P.S. Rayburn needs to add some exterior color to their Yachts, she seams a bit "vanilla" like.

    Well it's official....The Boating Season is Over!!.
    The cold Alaskan front has moved south blending with the Hawaiian warm rainy front to create "snow".
    For all you Southerners that have never experienced this phenomena:
    when you stick your hand out the window, it creates a "numb and tickling" feeling.:p

    Everything is upside down, we’re getting the snow and you guys are playing golf.
    But ours will go away in a week and you’re snowed in till March.
    I’m actually from Montreal, West Island (Pierrefonds), when I was a kid we used to go to the Habs games and Rock concerts at the Forum, miss the last train back to the Burbs, wonder the streets till the morning (I don't remember any age/drinking restrictions) and get caned for two weeks upon arriving back home.:rolleyes:
