"The Shortest Of Stops

Wednesday, 19 April 2006

People queued late into the evening to visit Logos II during a very short visit to Basseterre, St. Kitts & NevisThe gap in the schedule was less than 72 hours. However, with the berth in St. John’s, Antigua, only available later, Logos II needed another alternative to making a very slow voyage from the Bahamas. Finding a creative solution to the scheduling challenge, an extra stop in Basseterre, St. Kitts & Nevis, was speedily organised. Although little had been done to publicise the ship’s arrival, word of mouth alone meant 8,500 people (20% of the country’s population) came on board during the two days! Scenes of crowds at the port gate suggested there were many who wished the ship could have stayed longer."
