A short move to Ballast Bay

14 April 2010 | Ballast Bay, St John's Harbour, Antigua, WI

The rain remained very heavy all night and finally stopped at about 6 am this morning. Blue sky appeared, and all of our wet clothes from yesterday went out on deck to dry. This now included bedding and carpets which had suffered from a number of leaks we have at the moment through various hatches. There were about 15 boats in the anchorage, and by 10-30 am, there were 3 left, all probably aware of the forthcoming forecast south westerly wind later tonight which will blow straight into the bay. We had already decided to move, and left the bay, turned right twice and re-anchored in Ballast Bay, a pleasant spot inside St John's Harbour, but out of the shipping lane which would later be in use by the 3 cruise ships moored up in town. This afternoon's jobs? Finish reading 'James Bond - You Only Live Twice', then start repairing the leaks into the boat. Given that there are at least four, I suspect that this may take some time.... With the wind forecast at a Force 7 North Easterly for the weekend, we have delayed our trip to Parham Harbour up on the NE coast, figuring that albeit protected, there would be no means of escaping through the maze of coral reefs in the event of an emergency, so a trip for next week now.
