Subject: Re: [worldcruising] Mail forwarding services

I'm having good luck with St. Brendan's Isle. It's focused on cruisers and been
around for awhile.
They've recently changed owners and the new owners (so far, at least) have left
the operation unchanged. You can also arrange bill-payment through them plus
they have a discount purchasing service for marine & RV parts.
Mail Boxes Etc. can be good, but the quality of service depends on the
individual that owns the franchise and not MBE as a corporation. You need to
talk it over with the individual operator to see if they understand what your
needs are.
Keep in mind that many insurance companies automatically set insurance rates and
eligibility based upon your mailing address. They really don't want to hear
about mail drops. This can significantly impact things like HMO membership if
your plan is to make annual or emergency pilgrimages home for major medical
needs or annual check ups while visiting family & friends. If this is the case,
you probably should consider imposing on a friend/relative for at least that
portion of your mail, or (assuming you one available) plan on using a local mail
drop like MBE.
