Having a Jolly Time in Jolly Harbour

We left at 3:00 a.m. and motor-sailed for 17 hours to Jolly Harbour, on the western side of Antigua. Our nighttime arrival was a bit difficult, but we had been there before. When we got close enough, we were able to see the bouys, so we followed them in. The captain found a spot, so he dropped anchor and we were there. Jolly Harbour is kind of a sleepy town, about a fifteen minute ride to the marina. There is a well-stocked grocery store there, and several restaurants. They

St. Barthelemy - Playground for the Rich & Famous

St. Barthelemy, or St. Barths (for short) is a beautiful, well-kept island. Everything was in immaculate condition, from the roads and buildings to the landscaping and the people. We browsed the most expensive stores, ate, drank, gazed at many super-yachts, went to museums and to Shell Beach. Our anchorage was over-crowded and rolly. After one day in St. Barths, we were ready to head to Antigua. In addition, we did not see any famous people. They didn't see us either.

First Long Passage

Time was coming for our very first long passage. 1500NM from Hampton, Va to Saint Martin in the West Indies or Windward Islands. We decided to join the Salty Dawg Rally, with a group of seasoned sailors who offer guidance and support while o n passage. This was a good decision on our part as we had workshops such as safety at sea. They also offered an informal inspection and guidance to ready the boat for this passage. It was a chance to meet and greet others making the same
