First, Cape Town is really nice and the view of Table Mountain nothing short of spectacular Second, the usual boat projects and their coordination were a bit of a challenge. Robben Island is the island where Nelson Mandela was held as a political prisoner during Apartheid. It\’s the Alcatraz Island of South Africa and now like Alcatraz, a tourist attraction; no longer a prison. I\’ll catch up the blog in the next day or so and \”tell all\”…..:-) KIT, We\’re back on Sailmail for the time being and maybe for quite awhile. Scott and Sailor Nik
