PATJUD Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Joey Hold the two places for Louise and me till some further checking is done. Thanks Judson OK Joey, I just called and spoke to Captain Sharon Allen in St Thomas. She explained that you can step right from the dock into the dingy and then step right from the dingy onto the sailing yacht. The Captain has arthritis and I described what Louise could do and not do and Captain Allen said that Louise would be fine with the trip. She just said that Louise could take it slow and could manage getting down to the restroom with little problem. She said the only problem would be the ladder from the yacht into the water and Louise wasn't doing that anyway. Captain Allen said it would be a great day for her just hanging out on the yacht and enjoying the sail. So Mr Joey - Louise and I want to go.

" I agree on the expense. I don't think it's too expensive either. We paid more than that for our float plane tour while in Alaska. This will be the HIGHLIGHT of this cruise as far as I'm concerned. Darn - I'm so excited about this that I have to keep doing an edit to correct typos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
