Big Decisions

The days that followed were full of big decisions for us, we started to research the options for shipping Magnum home, as the weather in the North Atlantic generally looked like it was going to make for a difficult trip even if we made the first step to Bermuda.  This was not the option we really wanted to take, one because we had wanted to sail back and secondly as we had not budgeted for this expense.

It was good to be in Blackpoint as we were able to use the free wiifi at the laundrette, we soon had a number of quotes and Mark looked to negotiate the best rate.  We choose to go for a charter option out of Fort Lauderdale, our decision was taken mainly on price, wow it is expensive!  We were very grateful to the Government office in Blackpoint, who printed scanned and faxed our contract, again demonstrating how nice the people are in this small settlement.

The weather during our stay here was wet and windy for days on end and only made what was a difficult decision easier to come to terms with.
