Sounds like a perfect plan to me Chief Koala. From all the snow everyone's witnessing to-day in so many places, I'm sure all will be excited to head for Silverado Beach - you & I know how consistent & lovely the weather is there with great off shore breezes to keep the humidity down. The crew & passengers will get a well deserved rest.

Will you look after making sure our navigational maps are in order after checking out the boilers again? By the way have you seen Co-Captains Cooky & Goldtender about? Before long you will become a Co-Captain too - likely long before the return trip. We are very excited & appreciate your wealth of knowledge & practical experience. Thanks again Koala!
