</td></tr> <tr><td> 'Pitcairn Island location' . </td></tr> </tbody></table> Amendment: The residents of the tiny Pitcairn Island in the South Pacific Island, descendents of the mutineers of the Bounty, have now change the 'closure' of the island to all incoming yachts for fear of Swine 'flu to a 'restriction'.
If readers are aware of any yachts headed for the island, please notify them.
Marcie and David Lynn, travelling on yacht Nine of Cups, were to be the last yacht to be able to visit the island until the embargo was lifted, as they were already present when the 'borders' were previously closed to all. They were present at the emergency meeting of the local population, which voted to disbar all incoming traffic until the emergency was over. this disbarment has been changed to 'restricted with conditions' - please see advice from Pitcairn at the end of this article.
The islanders said they were acting on the WHO statement that raised the level of the world wide alert to level 5. Nine of Cups had been told that once they leave the island they would not be allowed to return until the island was re-opened for traffic.
