OK, I Think it is Real

At long last it it time to go to Florida. Based on my tracking of Palembang as it left Texas and the fact that she took up a course to the east, I now think it is OK to make my travel plans. 

It's a bit of a mad dash to make airline, hotel and rental car reservations. and clear my schedule. I hate working on such short notice, but that seems to be the YachtPath way.

I've contacted the broker in Florida, who has been following the saga to let him know I'm coming down. I also asked that they reach out to the Captain I hired to help me deliver the boat to Palembang. Also asked that they check with all the other suppliers to make certain all there projects are complete, and there are no last minute surprises from their end.

Karen is none too happy. She cannot go because of business commitments. She has been juggling her schedule in hopes of going with me, but the endless delays made it impossible to commit to this trip and not commit to her clients.  

Hopefully, she can make the unloading in Victoria, Canada.
