treated and back home. This was a test of his faith which
did not stop him.
In 1946 Gus, still undeterred by his previous losses,
launched the 10 ton General Progress. This boat was used
to take passengers to Pine Ridge, Grand Bahama (Freeport)
and bring back lumber and remittances from family members
living and working there. Because of hardships at
home, many men from the TCI sought economic opportunities
in The Bahamas to be able to provide for their
families. This link provided an opportunity for people to
travel to and from The Bahamas and fostered the opportunity
for trade. This was another vital service that Gus was
instrumental in providing.
It is through this initiative that Gus was able to establish
a long-lasting relationship not only between The
Bahamas and the TCI, but specifically with Pine Ridge and
the Caicos Islands. There was a labour agreement between
the two country’s governments; these trips serviced that
agreement. Many of the men from the Islands found
employment opportunities in the Pine Yard in Freeport.
As Freeport developed, they found work in the hotels and
taxi business.
Unfortunately, after more than 40 trips, the General
Progress was wrecked in July 1954. Another misfortune
for Gus, but despite this major setback the trade continued
using a leased boat called the Cherry Top. Most of the
lumber was consigned to the Turks & Caicos Government—
still repairing 1945 hurricane damage. Perhaps the most
important cargo was not lumber though, but remittances
to family members of those employed in Pine Ridge.
In mid-1958 the famous 20 ton K. C. M. Orlando
was launched. The Orlando served Turks & Caicos well:
Customs officials say she was 21 tons—she always came
home overloaded. During Hurricane Donna in September
1960, Gus watched as two year-old K. C. M. Orlando parted
moorings at Wheeland. Recognising her importance to the
life and livelihood of his people he gave chase on foot. She
smashed one side and ended up on Piece-O-Bay (a small
piece of sandy beach between what is now Thompson
Cove and Turtle Cove Marina). Because she was badly
needed, a praiseworthy repair effort was exerted and by
December she was back at sea. In February 1967, after
35 trips to The Bahamas and 3 to Puerta Plata, she was
wrecked in a storm with 26 adults and 16 children aboard.
Not one of the passengers or crew was lost.
