Fly By 6 March 15, 2002 Thom thought we should go flying. The plane was too fast and too bumpy and would not get low enough for good shots. Bitch...Bitch...Bitch.... Click On Photo See Larger Mon Mar 25 10:31:04 2002

Baths March 14, 2002 We went to The Baths on Virgin Gorda. The taxi ride from Leveric Bay was spectacular. 'Tiger Taxi' took us round trip for only $10 usd for the round trip. 3/4s of the Ersland family went spelunking the other 1/4 was busy watching our stuff on the beach. warning: This photo was altered as per the request of one of the models.

BEYC March 14, 2002 We acually stayed on a Saba Rock Mooring and went to dinner at Saba Rock. FREE water for the boat with a paid mooring at Saba Rock. We motored the boat here from Leveric, sans Captain. It went very smoothly without the 'Old Man' onboard. we held a ball for Salty Cat who was out diving that day with our Captain.

Leveric Bay March 13, 2002 If you look closely you can pick out Sierra Hotel in the Moorings. We practiced docking, picking up moorings and almost took out a monohull on a mooring. We missed out on 2 for 1 pain killers at the Lighthouse because we were practicing and we took a great taxi ride over the island to The Baths. Click On Photo See Larger Thu Mar 21 10:18:28 2002

Fly By March 15, 2002 This was a busy day. First we went into BEYC in the morning to "SHOP". Next was to dock the boat at the Saba Rock Dock to fill up with our 'FREE' water. Then off to the aerial photo shoot. After that Thom had to show Kate how to plane a digny while the rest of us had to move the boat back to Leveric bay for more docking practice. Then we still had to sail to Marina Cay and do our M.O.B.s on the way there. NOTE: A pick up by another boat does not constitute a successful M.O.B. pick up during pratice.
