SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico -- A cruise ship carrying gay and nudist passengers was temporarily stopped and prevented from entering the Caribbean country of St. Kitts and Nevis on Wednesday, a company official said.
A Windjammer Barefoot Cruises ship carrying 110 passengers was stopped by local authorities off the smaller island of Nevis early Wednesday morning, said Shannon Manno, vice president of sales for the Miami Beach, Fla.-based company.
"Local authorities told cruise ship employees that they had concerns about letting the ship in because it was a gay and nudist cruise," Manno said. "We're working on resolving the issue with higher authorities in the St. Kitts and Nevis government because this type of cruise has been there before."
An official at the St. Kitts Tourism Authority could not confirm or deny the report, but said gay cruises have come to the former British colony in the past.
"We have had gay passengers and cruise ships and there has never been any problem in the past," said Randolph Hamilton, a senior manager at the tourism authority.
The ship had previously stopped in St. Maarten and Anguilla and there were no problems, said Sharon Kersten, a publicist for Miami-based event production company Source Events, which organized the cruise.
"The passengers can be nude while the ship is at sea but once they come to shore they obviously have to be clothed," Kersten said.
The ship is the S.V. Polynesia, a 248-foot schooner. Most of the passengers aboard are Americans, Kersten said. |

And I'll tell ya...at the risk of getting myself banned from this board...the admins should have banned Joey the second after they found out about him posting Maxy's personal information on the board...next to death threats, there is no more reprehensible behavior on an internet message board...

" A woman caller wanted to know if he had ever thought of having a son to pass his genius on to. Howard said the three daughters he has are enough for him and that he was through having kids. However, Robin thought that Howard would love the kid if he had another but Howard said he thought that he would kill himself if he had another kid. Howard said that one of his friends got his "balls snipped" the other day and he is still out of work with his balls on ice - so that method of birth control was out of the question. Howard said he hates seeing old guys like Michael Douglas and Imus running around with their kids as if they were the greatest dads in the world. Howard said he has done enough parenting with his three daughters and did a great job at that. He said he doesn't need another kid at this point in his life and that he has plans for his future which don't include kids. Then Howard showed everyone a picture of Beth and their dog, Bianca, on the cover of "New York Dog" magazine, which comes out this week, as an example of his current home life. He said that Beth has become the national spokesperson for the North Shore Animal League and he is very proud of her for it. "
