Comment by Liv 1 hour ago Delete Comment Sounds like your files are too big. You should reduce your photos, using some type of photo software. Then try again, upload a photo that is small in resolution.
Mine are not much bigger than 200 KB. . Comment by Jim Jackson 3 hours ago Delete Comment Well,
I just tried to upload a my guanadock photo and it didn't go. I haven't been able to upload any photos for some time now. Every time I try the little wheel spins for a long time and then I get an error message. I even tried to make the file smaller using the options on seaknots but no success. Any ideas?

Dear Jim,
2009 a huge year for travel-Captained a Jeanneau 54DS from Florida through the Bahamas to Dominican Republic.
Recently returned from six weeks delivering a sailing yacht from Istanbul, Turkey, through the Dodecanese to Cyprus.
Returned via a snow-capped Sofia, Bulgaria.
Best wishes to you and Marcy (and the pooch!)

You're in Georgetown, where to next and how long will you be in Georgetown?

Are you guys still in Georgetown?

Just got the Spot for your Georgetown location, tell Gary hello!

Jim, I'm in Samana PR, on the South coast. I did roughly the same route you seem to be on (twice, 1st as crew for someone then on my own, Sea Bound) I hope to catch you on the way by. I've had my cat Smoky aboard since I left Boston and haven't had any trouble anywhere on your likely route. I did have to fork out extra in Luperon for the cat. I assume all their shots are up to date. I'd suggest having a half a dozen US $5.'s. for the upturned palms you'll find when you get to the DR. Georgetown, by now probably has 300 to 400 cruisers and is about as big a cruising community as you'll find anywhere. Also known as "Chicken Harbor" since most of those there now won't go any further than the Bahamas. OK by me, I don't much care for crowds anyways. Luperon will have about 1/10th of that, with a constant turnover of both north and south bound boats. After the isolation and poverty in Luperon Samana is a nice place to visit. Great bus service to the rest of the island, a much brighter place. Samana is the DR's vacation spot, with daily whale watch trips and usually a cruise ship anchored offshore. Transportations a snap there. Though I didn't get there theres a beautiful park across Samana bay (about 10 or 12 miles) everyone raved about.. Lookout for whales around the peninsula, I've seen anywhere from 2 to a half dozen on 5 of the 7 times I've been there. Anyways, have a great trip.
