Mac, W9EVI, wades ashore from the ship's boat as we made our long awaited and anticipated landing on Serrana Bank on the evening of Friday, March 20th. Standing in the center foreground, with back to camera, is Vic, YN4DLS, who landed in the first boatload. Others in the picture are crew members of the "Rosemar", our palace afloat, anchored in the harbor in the background.
