The stick is in the water, sturdy, straight. I think the heavy work is more or less done already. It's still got plastic wrapped around the top but the light's been unwrapped. It sounds like they've done some amazing work here already this week.
Tomorrow we go into Fredricksted to pick up the electronics from the red boxes. I bring 'em back here for a few hours of handholding before they go out, and then tomorrow afternoon we'll start loading up the stick.
Well begun is half done!
cheers,
