Hola!
Finally broke free from velcro harbor aka Prickly Bay! Had a smoothe, uneventful sail to Tyrrell Bay, Carricou. First order of business is to have a lobster dinner at "LAMBI QUEEN" restaurant. See attached picture. LAMBI is native speak for conch. Full lobster dinner was $50 EC or $18.50 US.
Wonderful surprise at check out, new Customs and Immigration officers! The prior 2 were the nastiest to deal with I've met in all my travels. The new folks were the exact opposite! Made for a very pleasant experience that took 15 minutes instead of an hour!
Next stop was Chatham Bay, Union Island. Bought a fresh snapper from a local boat boy for dinner and served it up with Brussel sprouts. Got up this morning, had brekkie and sailed off for Bequia.
Again another excellent sail rhumb line
30 miles. Arrived at 4pm then checked in. Will stay here a few days to tie up some loose ends...
All is Grand, Cheers!
