Aruba Travel Forum

For any of you VT members that live in Aruba. One of Windjammer Barefoot Cruises tall ships is stranded at the dock in Aruba. No water on board, limited food, no fuel and no money forthcoming from the company for back crew pay and tickets to get back to their homes. They are living in appalling conditions. If anyone knows a contact in Aruba who could do something to help it would be appreciated by the crew and all the faithful "old salts" past passengers who have enjoyed this ship for years. Possibly a church group, yacht association, or someone with clout. The name of the ship is "Polynesia" and the Captain's name is Duane.
Thanks to you all for listening. You can all find out all the rest of the bad news about this company by looking at www.jammerbabe.com/flotilla and clicking on Breaking News and the individual ship threads on the forum index.

I am soooo bummed out! We sailed the Phantom for our 10th ANV and her loss with crew during the storm was bad enough but now!
