Skee,
Empress will be sailing out of NJ until mid Oct, then she will be sailing the Caribbean. Jewel will be sailing out of Boston in Sept and Oct for Canada, then she will sail the Caribbean until nx spring. As I wrote in a previous post, "you can't just walk across the street and get them". To me this just adds to the thrill of the hunt. Howard Kaplan has some pretty good sources, you might contact him.
