St. Lucia Star Online: "First it was Australia who required 96 hours notice by yachts intending to visit the down-under island continent. Then Fiji, who seem to go in for aping the worst of Australian bureaucracy, started requiring 48 hours notice from intending seafarers. Now the disease seems to be spreading. Any long range cruiser, when asked when he is intending to leave a port, is liable to answer something along the lines of “Oh, well, maybe next week, but we’ll see. We’ve been talking about staying here for the winter . . . but we don’t really know. If the weather is good we could leave tomorrow.” So to be asked the date and time of arrival in a place which is at least four days sail no matter where you are coming from, is a tough call. "
