The Caribbean as it was in the early 1960s - chartering was in its infancy, bare boating barely begun, visiting yachtsmen from other areas were few and far between. D. M. Street, Jr. as a young man age 26, fled the rat race of New York and arrived in St. Thomas in November 1956. There he bought the 52-year-old 46-ft. engineless cutter Iolaire soon after he arrived. He proceeded to cruise, charter, and explore through the islands. Street, with his late wife Marilyn and daughter Dory (age 2), was the first foreign yachtsman to explore the east coast of Martinique (1964). This all led to nine guides and three other yachting books.
