Totally Naked and Mandy Says No

On Tuesday we went for a 4 hour hike around a series of separate spectacular sandy bays on the southern tip of Martinique, right across to the Atlantic side of the island.
About half way round the island the track led from one bay up over a rocky outcrop and through some trees to the next bay. It was here we were shocked to see an elderly man stark naked standing on the path and peeing into the bushes with his stark naked elderly wife by his side.
The bay was full of naked people walking, swimming and just sunning themselves.
I tried to convince Mandy to take her top off so I could get a photo of her for this blog. She said NO!
I spent most of Wednesday trying to sort out Shian’s new smart voltage regulator for their alternator. I’m not sure it is smart at all and I think it’s faulty.
On Thursday I ran the OCC Net first thing. It was great to speak to Dan on Eschaton making his way across The Atlantic single handed again. It was also great to speak to Mick on Bluejacket for the first time this season now recovered from his health problems.
In the morning I rebuilt the front deck hatch with the help of Simon from Brisa. It has been leaking since last season. We completely disassembled it and fitted new hinges. Hopefully it will be ok now. I have ordered more hinge kits for the other hatches for Eddie to bring out.
In the afternoon we refilled all the diesel tanks and Mandy shopped for provisions.
We are planning to head South to St Lucia probably over the weekend.
And...... quite amazingly the number of viewings of this blog is over thirty three thousand five hundred!
