North Star - Day -1 - Final Preps and waiting



North Star is ready to go. Crew consisting of Henry DiPietro and Rick Meisner and me, Ted Rice are on board and ready to depart. As few last minute items needed from the Hiperdino, which Rick is taking care of and sails, rigging and topside stuff that Henry has taken care of, leaving me, Skipper Ted to play with the communications systems to ensure we can stay connected. Biggest communications concern is staying abreast of changing weather forecasts. I think as we got all of the food aboard, North Star's waterline rose about 2 inches. When the three of us get off North Start in St. Lucia, it will drop 2 inches due to the transfer of weight to our waistlines! We've been on again and off again about fishing. I am not sure when we will make the final decision! I don't think the fish need work regardless of our decision to fish or not to fish!
