18:27.0N 64:31.9W  Well the time at BEYC draws to an end!  Some last minute pictures, including one with  …  "Sons, and Son, and a Sailor"  (think Jimmy Buffett)…This morning we moved the boat along the fuel dock, and "all hands were on deck" for the refueling operation…Nani, Nate, and Alex on deck to hold and handle the hose…Shawn on the dock to handle the hose…Cindy in the forward cabin to monitor the forward fuel tank…and Poppi and Issy in the saloon to monitor the main tank, AND to operative the transfer switch (which "Kitty" is doing in the photo).  After about an hour we were ready to go…but we needed our course to Trellis Bay.  Well, as part of his qualifications for "Crew of Arbella", Nate plotted the course on the paper chart, and he was giving us all our headings and course changes….He definitely got it "right", because, 4 hours later, as expected, we ended up in Trellis Bay.  And then the crew went "on the beach" for a last day walk along the edge of Trellis Bay.  Later, Hurley put on snorkel gear and did some snorkeling around two sunken boats.
