Cover Photo: On the cover: Cruiser David Pattison heard the call of the Classics and jumped aboard the 1939 yawl Nordwind. During the racing, he grabbed this shot of the<br />
Alwyn Enoe-designed, 73-foot Carriacou schooner Jambalaya. Story on page 22<br />
I remember the very beginnings of <strong>Compass</strong> in 1995, when the pages were still<br />
pasted up in the office and shipped out to be photographed. <strong>Caribbean</strong><br />
<strong>Compass</strong> has come a long way and is now the most highly regarded and<br />
popular waterfront newspaper in the <strong>Caribbean</strong>, and likely, the world.<br />
