on closer inspection it appears those white things are really a Walmart.

IT IS NOT MAHO!!!!! I'm telling you there is way too much beach at the Caravanserai end in B's pic. And, the arc of the bay isn't right. And, the boulders that were there were never that big... and they were dark, not white. I'm still not giving in....

Yeah, I didn't think so. Just trying.... Where's CSI SXM when you need 'em?

Mullet Bay 1987 Barbs pic is definitely NOT Mullet. Besides the arc of the beach not being right, the structures we see on the beach don't match even 1987 (which IMO would be the same as 1984), and you can't see Maho Hotel in the background in Barb's pic - but you can see it above.

Oh geez this is driving me nuts. I'm not @ home rt now. I have mullet & maho pics. I'll look for them & post. Don't think its maho either IMO. Don't remember that much vegetation ever along the beach. Anguilla kim? Too funny- I was thinking the same thing!
Forum: The Friendly St.Martin Island Forum

Not mullet. I have pics from that time & all that's on mullet is the h2osport shack & the 2 restaurants. Try again B & Dee.

It's NOT Burgeaux Bay (unless that's me on the beach - & I guarantee it ain't!)

Wow, I haven't been here in forever. And, lookie here.... Great photos, as always, Denis. I love those random unplanned meetings that turn out to be so much fun. I believe I called you while I was stuck @ the top of the hill (and you were on the radio w/ ERB ) to let you know I was meeting B in an hour or so for lunch. And, then I get stuck in bridge traffic and am late to Buc, only

Absolutely!!! Great pic, B!! I remember waiting in line to be the next ones to get in the booth for a phone call back home to my grandparents. Cell phones, WiFi, texting? LMAO..... can any of you even phathom the SXM days of not only none of that, but no regular phones either? Drive to town to make a call!!! Need to meet someone..... you agree on where/when the last time you saw them. W
Forum: The Friendly St.Martin Island Forum

Great pic, B! That one I haven't seen before. I'm also suspecting it's EARLY 60's or before. From the pictures I have of Maho mid-60's I'm thinking it had to be before that? I can't tell for sure but it doesn't look like the Concord @ Maho is yet built? The pics I have of my parents playing @ Maho w/ the Concord under construction behind them is mi

Sounds like you had a lovely trip, Pat. Ah, yes, disgusting about Mullet. On the day I left in March I spent my final sunning moments at Mullet near the rocks and was disgusted at the garbage that was there then. Seeing the pictures after Easter was awful. Shame on ALL those people! And, shame on the govt for not providing proper disposal of garbage on the beaches! Yes, I too brought

Aw, come on Raspy, we don't bite. (well....) Seriously, we surely have to meet up next time when you don't have to get back home so quickly. If we have to D and I will meet you in the daylight.

Geez, Den, could you make my face ANY bigger than it already is?!!?!??! Sorry for anyone who got knocked off their chairs when that puppy came up! (Thumbnails, D, thumbnails! ) I thought that shot pic was SO great when I saw it on FB. What a great fun shot! Everyone looks like they are having so much fun? Where the hell was I?

Great trip report, Raspy! Um, and stop saying you are incognito. I surely can identify you in a line-up mister - even from the back! Ng'kay? Oh, and now that I know who you are (I do! I do!) you SO will be joining us next year for a drink (you owe me!) And, I think Red Piano would be a fantastic location. Sweetie you can go home and take a nap, wake up late evening, kiss that wife

QuoteBIGDENXRegatta was exceptional, high winds provided the action. HEINEKEN staged the 29th. event with the precision of a brain surgeon. Everything went off flawlessly and it’s a BIG job. Volunteers and the St. Martin Yacht Club worked to make HR-09 an event to be remembered by all. > Agreed. Great job by all organizers and volunteers! QuoteBIGDENXGot to give a paragraph to KARA
