    VHF use in the Caribbean

    I've just purchased a British registered (SSR) yacht in Grenada which will be my home for about six months out of each year for the next few years.

    Can anybody identify this boat please?

    Fraudulent Insurance Be Careful

    Dear Peter. I am yet another victim of these people, facing huge clean-up costs after my boat sunk in Holland after they just refused to pay out of hand. Just spent the day (Feb 20th) with my lawyers - think it might be worth our while to communicate
