Hurricane intensified. Crew anguished.

Stay aboard or hide ashore?

Waking, listening. Onslaught.

Together ... and waiting.

Quiet moments before the storm.

Unshackling, uncleating, stowing and fretting. Soundings, makin' bidness, and calling the Owners. A call to home, where is home?

Phyllis and Mike transformed; a disappearing power yacht; hard labor in the sun; an unexpected presence.

A macho moment, a jump-ship moment, and Phyllis's chance for romance.

Power and vitality - a really big yacht, the scent of money and young men - in the path of danger.

Wealthy owners and guests, with comings and goings?

Gracious whiling, a change in Phyllis and change in a tropical storm.

Two on a beach, inches close, lifetimes apart.

On board - the Owner's stateroom, ashore - too crowded on an empty beach.

A bridge for two, a dinghy for two, an ocean just big enough for two.

Crew, crew, crew. Smouldering, smouldering, smouldering.

Two churches, one priest. Reflections on swift currents. Timelessness, loss and decay.

To shoe or not to shoe. To shore or not to shore. Attitude and a welcome change.

Another skip, lights in the night, and tell-tale waters.

Explanations.

Something desolate, something cold.

Bathing, bathing ... and bathing, after a long, long time at sea.

A room on the ocean, on one of a thousand islands, and no way to see.

Seeing and not seeing at sea. A surprise visit.

Psyche is overtaken by a U. S. Coast Guard helicopter in mid-ocean. His crew surprises John.

Night vision, a path of light to Venus, the loom of St. Croix.

Running lights, night encounter.

John just about figures out what separates those who go down to the sea in ships from everyone else.

Jonathan is disconcerted, how exotic can the mundane get in the sway of the French?

A captain checks the anchorage, the boats, the docks, the ... everything.

Rayanne looks into her coffee cup ... and does some sorting out.

Carioca gets saved ... maybe. Rayanne gets smashed. Somebody gets promoted. Kitt finds an easy floater.

Coast Guard patrol boat, Sandy challenged ... broken? Rayanne and Noor - the nightmare was real.

Rayanne disables her first terrorist, explosives missing from the centerboard well, Lusitania in St. Thomas?

Waltzing in something borrowed and something altered, cruise liner collisions in the dark, Sandy fighting outnumbered, Rayanne leaps ... and misses!

Kitt again? Carioca ... Culebra? Vieges? The Virgins? George? ... George?

Spaulding and layers below layers of misery, revelations of Kitt and the powers-that-might-be.

Bad morning, French surprise, no board, and a voice behind you.

Boys on floating chicken coops, missing explosives? Triangulation and sleeping on the beach.

Rayanne soars, a dark and stormy night, cat fall, and a promise

Courtesan's coming, Rayanne asks a favor.

George is sighted, Kitt turns up, Rayanne wins one round and gets a shock.

Cotter pin, bolt, death lurks underwater.

Collision? Get the Rasties to safety. Stricken. Underwater gamble for life and death.
