Flying Pig sunk?
Skippy's SPOT stopped giving positions a couple hours ago. Last known
position between Vero Beach and Ft. Pierce about 10 miles offshore. Wilbur Hubbard |

Flying Pig sunk?
Now we know you don't have anything better to do than follow real cruisers.
I doubt they are sunk. The SPOT tracking has to be restarted every 24 hours and it's quite easy to forget, especially if you are out there on a real cruise and sailing day and night. They'll notice that only one LED is blinking before long and turn it back on. -- Roger Long |

Or another explanation might be that Skippy and Lydia are having some of that fantastic sex that she brags about. I'm sure they keep at it for hours and hours at a time without stopping. They probably have Grandma duct taped to the helm for a 12 hour stint. Wilbur Hubbard |

Sorry but we 'real cruisers' don't spend most of our time driving up and down the freeway causing us to have to sail south when it's about 45-50 degrees. We real cruisers sail when the temperatures are more compatible with comfortable cruising. Skippy just dallied too long up there in New York. I tried to warn him but did he listen to his superior? But, Nooooooo! Wilbur Hubbard |

Then zoom in close at the hamsters packed in like sardines waiting for the next hurricane to wipe out the whole city. How can Yankees live like that so close together?! It looks like Tokyo! One neighbor's roof drains onto the next neighbor's roof! How can anyone get any Florida sunshine when his back yard is about 8 times as wide as his bathtub? Why would anyone buy one of those hurricane trackers?? |

They want waterfront property, don't pay much attention to Momma. -- Jere Lull Xan-à-Deux -- Tanzer 28 #4 out of Tolchester, MD Xan's pages: http://web.mac.com/jerelull/iWeb/Xan/ Our BVI trips & tips: http://homepage.mac.com/jerelull/BVI/ |

Skippy finally woke up and re-set it. He's down by Hobe Sound now. Won't make it to Miami till tomorrow. That is one slow boat! Wilbur Hubbard |
