Mark
At Last sailed from St Lucia on April 23rd and is now passing through the BVI two days later. We stopped briefly in the BVI to meet s/v Matilda at a marina to pick up a package and deliver it to the states for them. It was hard to not stay and enjoy the islands but we are on a mission to get to Tampa. We will stop in the Turks and Caicos for a day or two then on to Key West and Tampa. T&C is about 420 nm from us now and the winds will be light but hopefully enough to sail. This passage to Tampa is almost 1600 nm. We should arrive by May 4th if the weather and the Gulf Stream cooperate.

Extra:
For those of you who know Mark, you would agree that he is a very conservative and risk adverse person and one who suffers terribly from motion sickness. So, you must be wondering how he could give up the security of a wonderful job to sail around the world, especially in this economy. Well, [...]

Here are some photos of the islands as we were leaving Nevis, passing Montserrat and arriving at Antigua. A pleasant 50 mile motor sail into 10 knot head winds. I took a nap for 90 minutes. Blogging keeps me up late at night.

These were taken last year sailing in Long Island Sound by Yacht-Shots. My colleagues at Baystate Health were kind enough to have three copies of one these photos printed and framed for me as a going away gift. A large one for home, one for the boat and one for my desk. Very Special!
