Ocho Rios to Tres Puntas
A lovely passage, downwind, spinnaker got some use, many dolphins, and even whales. Ended in a heavy wind and rain storm.
On Passage
Providenciales to Jamaica
Lovely sail most of the way – plenty of “boom” waves which the boys enjoy. Also some scary lightning.
SamanĂ¡, Dominican Republic to South Port, Grand Turk
Slow but wonderful sail for our first passage in a year! Caught a Mahi Mahi (yum), and saw a whale breaching repeatedly on the way out of Samana. Great trip.
BVIs to Dominican Republic
Beautiful sail, and best of all saw humpbacks on the way into Samana Bay! We all love night sailing.
Passage Isle de Saints, Guadeloupe to St Pierre, Martinique
Lovely sailing – varied winds, mostly minimal swell, happy children.
Jolly Harbour, Antigua to Cocoa Bay, Barbuda
Not a bad passage. Lots of wildlife including WHALES. No photos, sorry!
Roseau to Portsmouth
Watch out for the wind accelerating down the valleys – with a 15 knot forecast we saw 35 knot gusts. Good fun.
Rodney Bay, St. Lucia to Le Marin, Martinique
Rodney Bay, St. Lucia to Le Marin, Martinique. 19th February 2019. Good sail, but no fish.
Crossing the Atlantic – Day Twenty
We got there! Long day motor-sailing and hand-steering, but made it đŸ™‚
Crossing the Atlantic – Day Nineteen
Bad: Autopilot belt snapped again. Dave ripped the sail. Good: Found a kelp crab. Kept on sailing.
