Dear John,

Transit advisor boarding time for tomorrow Saturday, is for  3:30pm at the anchorage Flats.
Kindly shift to the flats about 1:00pm and report to Cristobal signal station on vhf channel 12.
Handliners will be on board between 1100-1200am tomorrow

Tires and lines to be landed at the balboa yacht club, a $10.00 tip for boat men to pick up equipment and handliners

Erick called later and told us to still be at "The Flats" at 1:00pm, but that the advisor will be coming at 2:00pm.  All the better and I am pleased about the way our agent Erick keeps us informed.

That may mean that we will be transiting the first set of locks, the Gatun Locks, earlier than my previous estimate of 5:00pm.  We shall see.
