12 Nov 2011

The past two days were spent getting registered with the ARC office, attending cocktail parties and getting through the safety inspection. All were accomplished with success. We will be attending an owner’s dinner tonight and then watch the dingy race tomorrow.

Not much else to talk about. Plan to take a tour of the island on Monday and attend some seminars next week on rigging, weather, first aid, life raft use, flare demonstrations, downwind sailing, provisioning and others I am forgetting right now.
