Hi Craig and Karene! Too long since hearing news from you! I actually googled your yacht and can see where you are!!! How are both of you?? So fun to see your still on the high seas!!! I’m sure you have stories that would fill a book!!! Always know you have a second or third home here and I won’t set you up to be Santa Craig!!! How are your daughters and any grandies yet??? Keep in touch!!! Love you! Wendy
