Bottom line is that I need to think up some scheme that could get me onto St Barth which is where I really want to be anyway.
IV,
Take a page from the Tim book of SBH ownership.
1. Wait for a big blower to come through and grind a house off of its foundation.
2. Scrape away the leavings and apply new building a piece at a time.
3. Spend 50 % of your 32 weeks on the island keeping the house varnished, painted and polished like a new schooner.
4. Await the next big blower.
5. Repeat steps 2-3.
Note Tim has only "enjoyed" steps 1-3.

JEK: I should much prefer writing a check and hauling up a carload of wine and champagne to celebrate. Your Buzzard Approach probably has merit. Even so, don't do buzzard well.

While I am there, I may pop over to Nevis, about which I have done extensive internet searching but no On-Site yet.
Nevis looks very attractive.

The Cupecoy Beach Club is outstanding. Call Joe or Carol Casacio at Cupecoy Beach Club, The Market Place 2010 County Line Road Huntingdon Valley, PA 19006 Phone No: 1-800-955-9008 Fax: 215-355-8119 email: info@cupecoybeach.com <mailto:info@cupecoybeach.com>
We have stayed there many times, usually at the tail end of a St. Barth trip. Believe it or not SXM actually has some beaches AND restaurants that compare very favorably with SB.

The problem with Cupecoy is the beach comes and goes and you can't tell when. Also, it has become a haven for the alternative lifestyle group- down by the cliffs.

Since we last discussed this, I have monitored the web and real estate options. There is a LOT of construction going on over on the Dutch side particularly. Apparently traffic on St Martin has become a nightmare with Those In The Know not even trying certain trips at the wrong time of day.
A lot of what is being built on St Martin looks very nice. There is just a LOT of it. As such, I believe I shall pass on my plans to Go Condo on St Martin and just watch all this from a distance. Many thanks to everyone.
As to the persons who now favor Cupecoy, I am concerned for them all as it appears that several cliffside complexes are one good wave away from being ON Cupecoy.
