Island) Marina 11:30
Crew                          Ben, Brad & Kevin

Remarks:        Very interesting trip.  Traffic like we have never
seen before.  Visibility not great but could be much worse.
Basically uneventful, just the way we like it.

Saw a large herd of dolphins and some followed us for a while.  We
are looking forward to a week or 10 days here.
