Story on page 22 I remember the very beginnings of Compass in 1995, when the pages were still pasted up in the office and shipped out to be photographed. Caribbean Compass has come a long way and is now the most highly regarded and popular waterfront newspaper in the Caribbean, and likely, the world. — Chris Doyle, Author Sailors Guide to the Windward Islands, Cruising Guide to Trinidad & Tobago, Cruising Guide to the Leeward Islands Compass covers the Caribbean!

The group had the idea of providing each town on the island with a racing sailboat to train and introduce youngsters to maritime careers, while stimulating a competitive spirit in inter-community sports, which currently seems to be fading. The project leaders explain that they aim to create a “base of sea champions” for Martinique. Beyond its obvious sporting character, this project also aims to develop a more stable and viable economy around the sea and water sports. Martinique currently has 130 companies active in the yachting sector; these busi- Info nesses employ some 1,200 people. Approximately 12,500 vessels are registered here, and there are more than 200 sailboats available for bareboat rental, as well as 85 crewed charter yachts. The marina of Marin is a popular jumping-off point for other & Updates popular cruising destinations such as the Grenadines, and is visited by some 33,000 tourists a year. Annual turnover in Martinique’s yachting sector is 80 million euro. At the end of their study, the project managers came to an obvious conclusion: boating appears to be a strong axis for the development of job creation. The goal is Martinique on the Move now to keep the launched actions going and to include the development of sailing Rodolf Etienne reports: Martinique is making moves to develop even further as a in future project contracts with the island government (Etat-CTM, Collectivité sailing powerhouse. Territoriale de Martinique) and the European Union. A project under the aegis of the An ambitious project focusing on sailing and boating in Martinique was born when Caribbean European Racing Challenge Association will be chaired by racing sailor Martinican skipper Eric Baray met with well-established entrepreneur Emmanuel Jean Trudo. CHRIS DOYLE In related news, Martinique became a member of the yachting-aware Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States earlier this year, the first French territory to do so. And recently, the island’s capital, Fort de France, popular with visiting yachties for its sightseeing and great food, has received a “facelift”, creating better traffic flow, wider sidewalks and new landscaping. Clearing Customs Easy at Budget Marine, St. Martin All yachts clearing in and out of St Martin can now make use of a new, dedicated Customs computer system, where you do your own entry, print it out and then have it stamped by a Customs officer or the owner of the establishment where the com- puter is located. Budget Marine L’ile Marine has been offering this service since January. Lomig Henry, manager of Budget Marine St. Martin reports: “This extra service offered by us is a welcome and convenient alternative to going to the official Customs office. We are getting very positive results from both the private yachts and charter vessels that can now make use of this service. The service is not only convenient but also free of charge although yachtsmen are welcome to donate to the SNSM (Sea Rescue).” Located just outside of the Sandy Ground Bridge, Budget Marine St. Martin is an ideal location to do your custom clearing. A dinghy dock in front of the building makes it easy to visit. Opening hours of Budget Marine St. Martin are Monday through Friday, 8:00AM to 12:00 noon and 2:00PM to 5:00PM, and Saturdays from 8:00AM to 12:00 noon.

In the United States it was from the outset the middle classes who seized power and vigorously pursued their agenda of economic develop­ ment and commercial expansion. The American Revolution was truly a revolutionary movement, while the Latin American wars of independ­ ence were largely aristocratic assertions of self-interest against the mother country. The caudillos and the demagogues pursued their own Chronology interests, sometimes brutally, sometimes in an enlightened way, power alternating between the two all too often, and both based on the cult of personality. As economic growth and the expansion of the middle class have at last occurred in the course of the last third of the twentieth Birth of Francisco de Miranda in Caracas century, it has become possible to suggest that the era of extremes has 1750 1759 Accession of Charles III of Spain , passed.

    Cape Cod Catboat

    Cape Cod Catboat Instructions: Follow these instructions carefully and step by step. The rigging lines of the boat could tangle easily so do not undo the lines until instructed. 1. Unwrap the hull and stand. Place the hull into the stand with the hull facing forward to your right. Keep the starboard side of the boat facing you in order to follow the instructions and to compare with the diagrams. 2. Study brass eye “A” and the cleats on the boat. There are 7 cleats on this model but we will only be using 3-7. They each have a fixed position that corresponds to different rigging lines and sail sheets of the boat. See diagram (1). 3. Unwrap the packing of the mast; find brass eyes G1, G2, G3, G4, & G5 on the mast. The brass eyes must face towards the stern of the boat. Insert the mast into the mast step on the deck. 4. Unpack the sail. You may want to press the sail with an iron to get out any wrinkles. Find the headstay line on the front top portion of the mast. Attach the line to eye A on the bow. See diagram (1). 5. Put the gaff jaw at the end of gaff pole to brass eye M on the mast. Then find a pin at the end of the boom, insert the pin to a brass hole about 1 inch up the mast from the deck. Find a block with hook on the topping lift line. Attach the hook of the line to eye G1, then lead the line down the mast and through an eye at the bottom of the mast, starboard side, then fix the end of the line to cleat 4 on the cockpit bulkhead.

The following sections of this issue brief will contain a topical overview of the relevant history of Gran Colombia, Simón Bolívar, and Spanish-American colonial relations, as well as an explanation of the characters that delegates will be playing. This guide is not meant to provide a complete understanding of the history leading up to the committee, rather to provide a platform that will be supplemented by personal research.
