Ashore in Clarke’s Court, Grenada
12 January 2018 | Clarke’s Court marina, Grenada
ICS
We arrived Ok and having declared our £200 worth of spares by going down the red channel were waved through with no charges. Perhaps they took pity on us as two bumbling old fogies!
We checked into a marina apartment for two nights, this enabled us to find the boat after it had been moved, and clear enough space to live aboard. She was nice and clean inside as per the fortnightly boat check and the important jobs had been done, now it was down to us to complete the pre and post launch jobs list tha5 just keeps getting longer.
We had one panic moment when both anchors that we had left on a pallet with all the chain and rode down, but still attached to the boat, had disappeared. However after a trek round the yard with one of the very helpful office staff, they were tracked down and delivered today.
We hope to launch on Monday 15th and make sure everything is working and then having provisioned up, and assuming the incessant rain and squalls have passed we hope to leave for Cuba where we may arrive in time to meet up with Inga who arrived there today.
