A Post Script:
The
miracle of the Internet brought Hillary and her children back into
communication with me in 1998. I was astounded to learn that due to the
problems of selling their boat, and various other complications arising
from what Tristan had engineered, Hillary and Neil never were able to
return to England. They stayed in Bequia where Neil became a teacher in
the local school. They raised their children on and under the sea to
become natives of this little island paradise. Their children later did go
to England for higher education, so the ending was a beautiful one after
all. At the time of this writing Hillary is touring around South Africa
with her adult children....the unsinkable Hillary, and Neil continues to
work in Beguia. :-)
