About upside-downs

What is worse than getting your dinghy turned upside down and the engine full of saltwater? The same thing with yourself inside! YES, we have tried that also, in Castara bay, with a huge swell on the beach. Next time we will count the waves. But nobody got hurt and some locals helped us with the engine, and now it runs again. Actually, it runs so nice, that we wonder if we at all need the new Yamaha 15HP we have ordered.

Today Froystein and Kari will arrive from Norway. They landed on St.Marteen on Saturday, but the airline system here in Carribean is clearly not among the easiest. After two days and seven more islands, they will hopefully arrive Tobago in one hour or so. If the flight is not delayed...
