“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.” – Theodore Roosevelt

We believed that shipping from Florida to St. Croix, would take about two weeks. Seeing an “In-Transit Status” for days, we went to the US Post Office in St. Croix to inquire about the delivery status. We were told it would take up to 8 weeks and there is no way to track the packages when they are in transit at sea. Now, what… Most of the cruisers are out of the hurricane zone this time of the year; and the US Virgin Islands are in the Hurricane Zone. Being here during the Hurricane Season, it is nice to have the whole anchorage by ourselves but we were still concerned. Thinking about alternatives, we concluded it is best to wait here until we get all the deliveries by the USPS.
