Hi from the Helm !

Okay, okay!  So, it's been a while... We've been busy... and havin' way too much fun!  But as this last glorious Med season wraps up, it must be time to catch up with those of you who made it out to join the fun this yearÖ to say hi and send consolations to those who didn't!

Many thanks to RJ for contributing much of the content for this fall's newsletter - so if anyone takes exception to any insults contained herein, must be that he wrote it, not me.  Or - to quote one of RJ's own favourite responses to most situations : 


"It's not my fault !! 
- Now, what's the problem?"

Anyhow, between us we have lotsa new stuff to tell you about this fall, so
"Sit down, hang on, and leeeeeeeeeaan forward!" *

Frappe and  ice cream time for RJ and our Aug singles crew  at
Paradisos taverna, Leros.  Our floating homes, Vassilis and
Angelina awaiting us in the background.

Welcome aboard, Captain Pooh!

Those of you who sailed in the second half of the season will have had the good fortune to meet our newest member of the SeaScape team - the remarkable, irrepressible and wholly unrepentant Ken. Better known to those who sailed with him as Cap'n Pooh -- a moniker to match his distinctive Winnie the Pooh t-shirt (and form) as well as his very Zen "no-problem-we'll-deal-with-it" demeanor.
