Coool. The boat lift at the Marina was broken when I left this evening, but if it still is tomorrow morning they will launch the boat off the slipway.

So what I am trying to say is that we might not be at the forts for 11.00 but we will head that way on the Island side and we are sure to bump into you.

Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow.
