Three Coral Reef Sailing boats (Lady Nell, Excalibur, and Misty Shoals), one Sea Exploring boat (Yankee), and one Scuba Liveaboard boat (Conch Pearl) returned from sea yesterday.  The crews returned to base, went through the check out process and had their luau last night.  They will head home today (except the Scuba Liveaboard crew; I think they left last night).

The seasonal staff members of the Florida Sea Base are doing a great job.  Today we have six Coral Reef and one Sea Exploring boat returning.  The conference staff is busy with a CREDO conference (CREDO is a marriage improvement program for the US Navy) and the Galley staff is busy feeding us all.

Time to get to the morning staff meeting.  Enjoy your weekend.
