Bocas Marina
Bocas del Toro, Panama
Ole’s replacement aboard Independence has resigned, so his 10 weeks off has been cut down to 5, with one of the weeks requiring his attendance at diesel school in Ft. Lauderdale. Happily, though, the end of his course coincides with the beginning of the annual Winter Rendezvous of the DeFever Cruisers. We have been invited to present for about 45 minutes about our cruise from Guatemala to Panama, so we spent the last few days before Ole’s departure running through the presentation, editing and refining the Power Point slides, and working up our George and Gracie act to take it on the road. Well, I’m off tomorrow to join Ole in Ft. Lauderdale for a quick overnight and then a drive to Useppa to join the Rendezvous. Can’t wait!
