    .:.Rick, I hope you and your boat will be safe from the impending
    .:.weather due
    .:.in San Juan over the next few days. I understand the ocean
    .:.swells and surf
    .:.is going to be rough.

    We were sweating bullets for a day or two over Isabel, but looks like we
    dodged the bullet. What they did was take all the Coor's Lite cans on the
    island and built a wall on the east end. The wall was so massive that it
    deflected the storm.

    But we're out of the water right now anyway. If you're down here working,
    you're taking a real chance living aboard and not being free to move about
    during hurricane season.

    Given the looks of Isabel and her track, I'd say we'd better be more worried
    about you.
