    I just returned from my latest trip to Grand Cayman today and will post a more detailed trip report when I have the chance.

    What's your latest departure story from GCM?

    The last thread on this subject has been archived, but the gist of it was that wait times at the airport had gotten quite ridiculous last spring during the peak early/mid afternoon departure times. Our flight is scheduled to leave GCM at 2:45 on a Saturday afternoon in April. We're not flying...

    Kayak Diving

    Armed with the knowledge that we can rent kayaks for the week at the Reef and being very avid GC shore divers, I can't help but get giddy over the prospects of kayak diving the marked sites out east. Has anyone done kayak diving on Grand Cayman? Any experiences to share? Thanks!

    No 835's!

    I had my annual USCG inspection today and passed with flying colors. Woohoo! It's only my second year running an inspected vessel, so I'm thrilled. I have gotten to know the CWO who did my inspection pretty well over the past two years. I think this really helped. He's a good, fair guy...
