But not before we had one last big sail day. About 10 people from around the island came. Monica and Claire pretty much threw it together, and off we went at noon on the sunday before Andiamo was to leave Utila. Karen, the dive instructor who so diligently took care of the cats while Andiamo was in the yard, also came along. And, she brought along Mahia, who ended up becoming one of the infamous &#8220;Sea Cadets&#8221;, and crewed with Andiamo back to Rio Dulce. <br \/><br \/>It was a great day, lots of food and beer, and unfortunately, games initiated by Monica! Despite the games, it was a fine ol&#8217; time. It was also Claire&#8217;s big sendoff, since she was due to leave Utila the very next day. By the way, all the GOOD pics here were taken by Rob, who so graciously copied his photos to CD for me before leaving Utila. Great job Rob!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/utila-to-riodulce\/utila-last-sail-party-cockpit-with-chris.jpg\" alt=\"The cockpit in action\" title=\"Here's some of us hanging out in the cockpit as Andiamo sails around Utila.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/utila-to-riodulce\/utila-last-sail-party-cockpit-with-karen.jpg\" alt=\"more fun in the cockpit with Karen and Jeff\" title=\"More fun in the cockpit with Karen and Jeff\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/utila-to-riodulce\/utila-last-sail-party-monica.jpg\" alt=\"Monica, looking like she's recuperating from something.\" title=\"Monica, looking like she's recuperating from something.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/utila-to-riodulce\/utila-last-sail-monica-norm.jpg\" alt=\"Monica and Norm, playing the 'famous' game\" title=\"Monica and Norm, playing the 'famous' game.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/utila-to-riodulce\/utila-last-sail-party-chris-closeup.jpg\" alt=\"Close up of Chris\" title=\"Great close-up of Chris, a UK diver who was also just leaving Utila that week, along with Claire.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/utila-to-riodulce\/utila-last-sail-party-gang-photo.jpg\" alt=\"The Andiamo party gang\" title=\"Here's a shot of the whole party gang, except for me, since I'm the one taking the pic.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/utila-to-riodulce\/utila-last-sail-party-tony-w-camera.jpg\" alt=\"Me, taking all the gang pics with everyone's damn cameras....\" title=\"Me, taking all the gang pics with everyone's damn cameras....\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/utila-to-riodulce\/utila-last-sail-party-norm-companionway.jpg\" alt=\"Norm, running up the drinks\" title=\"Norm, running critically needed beverages to the deck.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/utila-to-riodulce\/utila-last-sail-party-tony-close-up.jpg\" alt=\"Me\" title=\"I usually don't like pics of me, but I like this one for some reason...\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/utila-to-riodulce\/utila-last-sail-party-tony-karen-mahia.jpg\" alt=\"Me, hanging out with Karen and Mahia\" title=\"Me, hanging out with Karen and Mahia\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/utila-to-riodulce\/utila-last-sail-party-tracy-in-salon.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Tracy, doing... er... something in the salon.
