Summary
Nicole was still wearing handcuffs in the morning, but when it came time for her and Randy to leave, he took them off before they headed for the airport in their rental car. Trey left soon afterwards, promising to let Al know about his availability as a swamper as soon as possible.
The surf was flat, and Myleigh and Buddha were discussing English Literature when Al, Karin, Scooter, and Crystal left to pick Michelle up at the airport. They had good surf and plenty of lively discussions the next few days until it was time for Crystal to take Myleigh, Al, and Karin to the airport, while Michelle and Scooter started packing camping gear to be shipped back to Flagstaff.
They get to their boat, the Felicity Ann (which was bigger than last years) and eventually sailed to Freeport, but found that too touristy and busy for their taste. The next day they found a deserted beach. Michelle brings out some new tiny bikinis for everyone, which they wore on the beach that afternoon. Scooter said at one point, "We ought to get a snapshot of this to send to Randy, just to prove he was right. Send one of these bikinis to Nicole too, so she could model it and he could get a taste of what it would have been like."
Crystal mentions again how close she might have come to marrying Randy, and why it wouldn't have worked, since she is even more of an outdoors fanatic than Nicole, and he was committed to the family construction business. Crystal realizes that in a similar fashion, she is committed to Canyon Tours to be there when Al and Karin decide to slow down and take a back seat.
