Because 28 people and all the gear cannot be loaded onto the SS Minnow,
alternate transportation has been arranged aboard the Carnival Cruise ship
"Imagination".  We will share the cost of the vessel with CBS, who will be
filming "Survivor Parody Island" at the same time.

The Minnow will still make the trip to serve as a support vessel and to
trawl for fresh shrimp for Roy's gumbo.

Keep checking the web site for updates.  

73, Don AA5AU
Parody Island DXpedition Team Leader
