We have been very busy checking all the systems, repairing windlass connections so the anchor will go both up and down, tightening rigging, having the engine checked out, repairing our leaky deck prism, putting on the jack lines, etc, etc. etc.
Charlie has plotted our course and we will depart this afternoon with the tide. Charlie has Commander's weather report and Predict Wind's forecast and feels it is time to depart. We will sail 85-90 nm overnight to St. George's on Grenada. The next day we will sail to Hillsborough BAy on Carricou IS which is a part of Granada. Due to time restraints, having stayed longer than expected in Trinidad, we will not stop in the Grenedines IS this time. We will spend a couple of days at Young IS/Blue Hole on St. Vincent which we had to skip on the way down. From there we will sail to Vieux Fort on St. Lucia and then sail on to Rodney Bay, St. Lucia the next day for several days of rest and to reprovision and refuel.
I will update the blog when time and access to wi-fi.
