Default Marsh Harbor+Green Turtle (was) Volvo 2000 Diesel Stuck.

Hi, Wayne,

We won't be leaving here before the end of the month. We may not actually
go to MH, first, as we have a sistership friend in GTC we'll visit.
However, if we can make it happen (have to check our paperwork to see) we'll
try to extend our visa which was good through at least sometime in July.

We'll likely post about our float plan; we expect but may not happen due to
air return costs to have our two grandgirls with us for the crossing.

If you're not going to be in the area for a while, we'll miss each other
that time. However, we expect to be in the Bahamas for many months, perhaps
a year and a half.

What's the weather like there, currently? Our resident needler proclaims no
wind this time of year, other than hurricanes, and bugs...

What do you have to recommend about GTC as to touristy, cheap, stuff, and/or
diving/snorkeling/beachcombing?

Skip and Lydia, working on the boat in high 90s, temp and humidity, and low
wind, with no AC!

"Believe me, my young friend, there is *nothing*-absolutely nothing-half so
much worth doing as simply messing, messing-about-in-boats; messing about in
boats-or *with* boats.
In or out of 'em, it doesn't matter. Nothing seems really to matter, that's
the charm of it.
Whether you get away, or whether you don't; whether you arrive at your
destination or whether you reach somewhere else, or whether you never get
anywhere at all, you're always busy, and you never do anything in
particular; and when you've done it there's always something else to do, and
you can do it if you like, but you'd much better not."

What is your ETA at Marsh Harbour? We are at Green Turtle Cay at the
moment, heading down towards MH in a week or so.
