We did not leave Mustique this morning until nearly noon. The weather report had indicated rain in the morning so we decided to wait until the weather cleared and the sun returned. Bequia, our next destination was only 13 nm away so we had the time to wait.

The waiting paid off as at noon we had casted off our mooring lines with the sun shining and had a wonderful downwind sail to Bequia. It was wonderful with the wind just behind our beam and the swells running behind us. We made the passage in just two hours and by a little after 1400 we anchored in Admiralty Bay. Once we were secure, I dropped the dinghy and ran into town to clear out for tomorrow's sail to Guadeloupe. It will be an overnight sail but the winds should be favorable, coming from the east while we sail just a point to the east of North.
