True to Form, YachtPath Continues to Disappoint

I’m still waiting to hear when we will load OceanFlyer. Last schedule said 2:30pm.

I fill the time with another trip to Home Depot and then to West Marine to get some new flares because the ones onboard are out of date. Sears is next to purchase a file and hammer and a pair of earmuffs for working in the engine room when underway.

I’m just filling the time waiting so I don’t go crazy.

I called Peter of YachtPath at 6:30pm to find out what was happening. “We are just putting the final touches on the loading schedule; I will be calling clients starting in 25 minutes.”

Two and a half hours later at 9pm, after a nice dinner at 15 St Fisheries, I called Peter again since he had not called me back as promised.

He said

 “Oh, I need to check my email, I forgot to call you? I’ll call you right back”.

His story was that the Palembang was to have their deck ready today so they could commence loading. “We waited all day” but they did not have the decks ready until 6pm.

What does this mean for loading OceanFlyer? Our time is now 9am Wednesday. As least two days behind the last published schedule.

Mind you there have been no updated schedules for two days and if I had not taken the initiative to track down the information, I would still be in the dark.
