So I will update the board later tonight, and take my turn!

I appreciate your support, fellas. It's been a bit much lately, but most of it is temporary, and will be worth it. I just gotta keep reminding myself of that.
So from now on, I will simply take a day or two off from being CFO, and come back when I feel better. No need to takeover my role.
Take all the time you need away from Shipopoly, your sanity is first importance.

Shipopoly can always wait.

Michael- Instead of sitting expectantly with your cap- would you consider selling your Survey ship or SCAPA Flow? Maybe not now- just keep my offer in mind. Since I only own 1 property- I would pay a modest, modest price over face value if that is allowed in the rules.

Oh yes. I look after my stuff. Everyone else's is another story. Especially if they're mean to me, like the Naval Fines Officer.

Actually, you land on Pearl Harbor, so M110 to leelaht.

Michael's move
From Base Tamar: Throwing 5 + 2 = 7 => Chance North
Throwing 15
You use the Lucky Bag as a spare locker and get extra watch duties. Miss a turn and take another Chance card

Throwing 14
The storms in the Bering Sea are bad. Your last log entry says 'At 10 AM went ashore for good'. Advance to San Francisco. Get out of Drydock free card.

Please pay leelaht $26 rent for my stay in San Francisco. Thank you, Mr. CFO.

I guess, since I miss a turn, I get to stay a second night at Leelaht's hotel for free! :D :D :D

You betcha tea kettle, compliments of the house, tell everyone about the great service!

Barometer rolls 4+6 which sends me to dry dock. This'll be my 3rd time around without actually getting to Go. Also means missing the more expensive rents.

That's an interesting thought! Hadn't crossed my mind. :? I don't think we've ever asked for a second payment on the 'miss a turn' results and I don't recall doing that in the 'original' game. :)

Sorry, to busy Holystoning the decks and nearly missed my turn.
A pair of 6s is the roll and off to Halifax I go. Oh that must be a mistake. I own that and do not have to pay rent. :P
3 and 6 this time. and I have landed at Shore Leave, Dry Dock, not much of a view, just a big hole. Good job I am only visiting.

Stuart - you could have started off the new round ;)

The Good Old Dog will get things going by throwing 2+3=5 so onwards from San Francisco to the marvels of Liverpool :) Oh! That's mine. Home port. Nice :D

Liverpool’s rich and colorful nautical history is showcased at the Merseyside Maritime Museum in the Albert Dock.

Take a fascinating journey through the social and commercial history of the port, trace the links of Liverpool to the ill-fated Titanic liner, view ship models and maritime paintings and step onto full sized vessels to understand the efforts put into building and operating these sea vessels.

Result of the dice: 1 + 1 = 2
You got a double!
You landed on Sitka

Result of the dice: 2 + 3 = 5

M10 to Michael for Sitka, Hong Kong is home port for me.
