Did you learn all about Faith, Hope and Charity?

And Kingair, if you did not learn about them and go and see Faith, you missed an awesome opportunity given your profession and hobby.

Very interesting. I did not hear about them, but our time was limited. My dad did relate docking his submarine at the same port.

thank you for a review of my island

Look for a 94' Halter Marine/Trinity Yacht expedition style yacht while you're there. I just sent some parts to it.

When we left the harbor there were thousands of, what looked to be, jellyfish on the surface.

Oh, why didn't we go fishing when I was there?

I'll catch you next time out.

Cool! We were on the Gem earlier this year. Florida/Bahamas cruise.

NCL, Gem
I was surprised how small the atrium was in the ship, only two floors.
I liked that the Promenade deck went all the way around the ship uninterrupted.

PowerYacht · 11-19-2009, 03:09 PM

yes those big jellyfish are harmless, and they always arrive in September for the Lampuki season which is still open
fishing? I am not so good in this but I know someone who could take you
tried a bit of trawling last summer but with no sucess, but I think I need some new lines which I will buy next Summer, the one I used are a century old as used by grand father, he was a good fisherman with his small fregatina (like a small maltese boat) with 2.5hp Evinrude used to go ten, twenty miles offshore for the fish, and I used to go with him sometimes too

Hey, PY, my GF (and her twin sister) were born on Malta. Dad was USN. One of these days I'm gonna take her back there to see it.

JJC · 11-19-2009, 06:19 PM

My dad was born in Malta, some of his relatives still live there and I went for a visit a few years ago. Hopefully soon I'll make a return trip.

PowerYacht · 11-20-2009, 03:49 AM

if you ever are around just send a message we can meet up for a beer and do some chat on boats....

PY,
What significance does the yellow, blue, green colors have on those boats in the harbor.
Most all had the rail yellow.
