Picked up a mooring at Saba Rock. What a cool place. Spent last night at Marina Cay, and fooled around at the artsy village in Trellis Bay this morning. Then a nice sail up to the end of the Virgins. 10 to 15 knots of wind from the southeast let us sail most of the way. Had to turn on the motor and motor sail as we passed the Dogs. Headed to Road Town tomorrow to talk to a guy about building us a radar arch. Winds are forecast to be from the southwest, which will be pretty much right on the nose all the way. At least tonight we have a brisk wind keeping the boat cool, should sleep well tonight.
We met a special guest for dinner tonight. We got together with Carolina who we met when we chartered "Crystal Clear" in 2007, and her 16 mos old son Valentin. Too bad Charly couldn't make it as well. You meet the nicest people on a sail boat.
