Re: Boat in Maho

Now that I have the NPS phone number in my phone (I didn't have it before) I will not hesitate to call also.

Re: favorite beach reads for kindle

I read "UNDOCUMENTED VISITORS IN A PIRATE SEA" by Jeffrey Roswell McCord. It is somewhat scifi but it all takes place on St John. A very enjoyable read!

Re: Boat in Maho

P600 that's what I thought. Of course as you can see by the picture, this is not a dingy. They actually ended up chasing people out of the water and I was concerned about the others swimming while he threw additional anchors over.

Boat in Maho

So we were sitting at Maho this afternoon enjoying the beautiful views. About 2pm, this guy comes within 20 feet of the beach and drops a couple of anchors. He unloaded a family and then proceeded to wait for about a half hour while they swam around the bay. I guess my question is … is this even leg...

Re: Think I found the spot for next trip!

This looks like a great spot. By the way, we are moving into one of those "adjoining rentals just behind cocolobo" in 3 weeks for a year! Do I sound too excited to get away?

Re: 2 Door Jeep Wrangler versus 4 Door

We have rented a 2 door several times and ended up picking up hitchhikers who had absolutely no trouble getting in and out! Young kids just seem to be much more flexible than us oldsters. We also had our cooler, chairs, and beach bag behind the seat with the seat up. I don't think you will have a pr...

Re: Travel from STT to "SJU"/San Juan then to BOS/MHT

We have traveled via Jet Blue several times through SJU. We are usually at the airport in STT 2 hours before the flight and have never had any problems except having to kill time waiting (seems we get through customs quickly). We have been on Jet Blue connecting flights with as little as 30 minutes ...

Re: Trip Report - Sailing November 15-23, 2013

I noticed you were sipping on Ron Zaccapa ... that is also my favorite. Do you favor Ron Zaccapa 23 or XO? We did a similar trip with a captain and chef (not bareboat) and based on the amount of work you outlined I still think we made a great decision! Great report, thanks.

Re: Most Overrated / Most Underrated

One of my favorite activities is to "guard" the cooler and beach chairs while everyone else goes snorkeling. Of course I am rarely successful and often a "thief" breaks into it and steals several drinks. :D

It works for me (using IE 10). Hopefully you can get it working ... have you tried resetting your system?
