We moved down to Lind Point to be close to Cruz Bay as I had Trinette sign up for Small Vessel Reporting System so we would ALL be able to use it, otherwise if we went to the British Virgin Islands (BVI’s) and then had to check in with Customs in the US Virgin Islands, then we would have to have her go in and check in or be stuck on the boat til they came over which on island time can take a long time. Unfortunately she left out of Tortola on the BVI side, so she did not come back through the US with us so it was all for not (go figure).

Now if we thought Caneel bay was rough, Lind Point was worse. Rocking and rolling with stuff falling off the counters and being thrown about in your cabin for at least two or three minutes which is forever when something crazy like that is going on.

Later in the evening, some other boats showed up. Ok… not boats, one was definitely a ship. I posted it as the first pic. I used the company photo as my little one was not as good but it is below. This is the Club Med 2. A five-masted sailing cruise ship that is 194 meters or 637 feet long carries 386 passengers and 214 crew. Then another monster boat showed up. It was a monohull (one hull, unlike us, which is a multihull – catamaran – 2 hulls) with 5 spreaders on the mast. Our mast is 61 feet tall and has 1 spreader… so this is a HUGE sailboat. Go figure that my pic of this boat has the Club Med 2 behind it. Who knows who owns this beast? Wonder if we dingied over with a bottle of wine if they would let us low life folks on board? They were gone in a flash. Maybe lots of people try to get aboard.



More pics to come on the next post.
