Getting serious...

Being in the Caribbean during "H" season is never a lot of fun... On one side it is the best time of year as the weather is mostly great and the tourists are at a minimum but the overall stress level that comes from a daily eye on the endless weather systems and tropical waves is anything but fun.

Of course, next season we plan to be somewhere on the other side of the Atlantic sipping Pastis (Pastis being a GOOD thing) and watching the world go by free from the stress and worry of when and where the next tropical weather system will arrive.

The process of getting "So It Goes" ready for the trip is actually something I'm looking forward to and includes a self-steering vane, some interior refinements, getting rid of the (much hated) deck to hull join lip/rubber molding, a couple of cunning plans and a seriously off the wall bad-ass paint job of yet undecided type... but can you spell dazzle?

Sort of grows on you...
