We’re working to finalizing full payment and delivery for our food this week from Expedition Foods to the boat for storage on board at Charlie Pitchers boat factory ; once this is done we will immediately ship it out to Antigua for trials .
My brother John the lawyer has generously given us a check towards paying for the food and we are very grateful for this .
Also Anjo’s Insurances and Massy United Insurance have given us a significant cash donation and insured the boat for a year for free starting this week . Many thanks to you all , especially Mr. John Hall who has personally contributed a significant check .
The meals are made up for three meals a day for four persons for a mandatory sixty days , all high calorie and actually quite tasty ! They’re freeze dried with long expiry dates and can be prepared in a few minutes by adding boiled water for approx ten minutes from our Jet Boil stove which takes two minutes to boil water . We’ll hopefully be eating freshly caught fish along with this .
