NOTE ! You should not be using coconut to power you dive tank compressor! There are reports that the way in which combustion occurs can allow Carbon Monoxide into the process and therfore it isn't decent to consider.
Learn more about COPRA on wikipedia
I would like to submit this mini article to register my interest in helping to understand how coconuts could be harvested and used in vehicles and for generators as an alternative for regular fuel. From my initial limited reading you take the COPRA (the flesh/kernel but not the shell) or just collect the coconuts and pulp them down, extra purification is needed to get the coconut oil. Some people have had more success using a mixture of diesel and coconut oil, One would like to see a 100% solution for vehicles and generators as then the idea is more pure. Please comment with your knowledge on current projects in the Caribbean on this..

A ship is always referred to as "she" because it costs so much to keep one in paint and powder.
Chester W. Nimitz
A Caribbean cruising experience is a pleasure tip of a lifetime. The turquoise waters of the Caribbean, the warm sunny beaches, the pampering treatment in the cruise ship and scenic ports of call to visit; the pleasure of a Caribbean cruise has many definitions. Caribbean cruising offers several options for travelers, so the first most important point is to choose a suitable Caribbean cruise plan.
First, you have to decide the type of Caribbean cruise you want to book. There are three types of Caribbean cruise, eastern, western and southern. The eastern and the western Caribbean are the more popular destinations although the southern Caribbean cruises are no less interesting.

So how do you know that you have found a Luxury resort ?
– well it may look expensive and it was listed as a Luxury resort may not be enough. Trip Advisor can be of help but you have to read between the lines and really the user photos report a more truthy picture than the marketed airbrushed glossy magazine photographs do. Yes in fact do that step, it is an efficient way to guage if that star rating is accurate. Ignore the stars somewhat when looking at resorts is another key they are simply misleading.

Stingray City : Grand Cayman – this is a must do (if your not fish squeamish) if you visit Grand Cayman. You don’t even need to be able to swim as it can be only 3 feet deep and crystal clear. You can dive it as well if you’re a scuba diver. Stingray City dive site info.

Adventure Holidays
Activity holidays are rapidly gaining in popularity. Evidently, growing numbers of holidaymakers are no longer content with just baking on the beach. Skiing and snowboarding have been quietly undergoing a revolution as prices have dropped allowing more than just the wealthy to head out onto the slopes for some fresh alpine air. But summer wise, we have been slow to cotton on to adventure and activity holidays. There are yoga retreats and walking or sailing holidays as an example but rapidly gaining interest is Scuba Diving.

Most people think sunshine and beaches when they start preparing for their Caribbean cruise. Make sure to pack for warm weather however remember that you need to pack cooler weather gear. Even on a warm day you can have unpredictable weather. The nights can be cold but there are also many activities for which you will want to be prepared such as shopping and scuba diving and many others. You'd be surprised at the number of things you'll want to keep in mind when it comes to planning for your trip. A little preparing can keep you from getting caught off guard on your Caribbean cruise.
Think about how much cash to carry with you the age of ATMs makes this question much easier to answer. You want to deter the thieves and pickpockets that exist in any vacation climate a good rule of thumb is to make sure you have enough cash for shopping and for tipping the staff. The good news is that with ATM's you can get cash as you need it. Paying the usage fees will be less painful then losing all your cash to thieves.
