[bolger] The little cruiser
I was excited to see the reference to their page. I met up with them
while going down to georgetown while sailing my F-9A homebuilt. At
the time I felt a little proud that I would be taking a homebuilt for a
long cruise. While comming into one of the out islands and avoiding
the shallows and reefs, I looked to shore and noticed a little boat
really enjoying the scenery. The turned out to be the little cruiser.
What a couple of characters. A parot, big ham radio and all tucked
into a boat not much bigger than some folks dingy. We spent time with
them, or I should say they were very sociable with all. They ended up
in Georgetown where after a month or so we parted as I had to head for
home. I remember that he cut his foot severely on a coral and this was
really slowing him down as it was not healing very fast. I told him my
wifes and my home remedy for big cuts whild afloat. Super glue. Works
great when away from doctors. Well, he did it and this worked fine and
he was soon about. Then and only then did I discover that he was a
doctor himself, specialty feet.
You guys with little boats, you can go out there too. Just learn about
the weather and navigation. good sailing Brad
