17 June 2010 | To Windward + Black Point...Jasper Tunnel!
Becca
We were swept away to the windward cost and O'M'God! When we get tired of the scenery, the sunsets, the great folks we meet, it will be time to go home! In the meantime, that hasn't even begun to happen. The last place on our wish list is Black Point Park, the home of the unique Jasper Tunnel. This tunnel is about 3,000 feet long and was ordered to be built by the British and constructed by slave labor in 1815 to provide an access route for sugar exports. This stunning achievement is mind boggling and the view at the end of the tunnel is over the top. Very hard to believe that anything could be loaded onto a vessel of any kind from these rocky shores, but it was! Incredible really!

| Vessel Name: | Altair |
| Vessel Make/Model: | Tartan 34' |
| Hailing Port: | Coconut Grove Sailing Club |
| Crew: | Dudley Clark and Becky Butler |
| About: | Dudley has owned this Tartan sloop and has been cruising on her since 1986. Becky joined the good sloop back in 2000 when we first started cruising together and he has been 'training' me ever since! I couldn't be happier! I've been sailing all my life, but cruising is a whole different fish! |
| Extra: | This is the most extended cruise we've braved on this wonderful, old boat of ours which is planned to be about 2 years! We left Miami in late February of 2008 and want to get below the hurricane belt by the end of July! Ok, so it's July, 2011...we're close, but not home yet! |
