Back in Rodney Bay

Image
Here some pictures taken a while ago from aboard Vanora. LinoCat left Tyrrel Bay 3 days ago and we then sailed to Bequia. The wind angle was always around 40 to 45 degrees so about the max which we can sail. Due to the strong winds we had a reef in the mainsail and still were doing more than 9 knots from time to time. Nice new antifouling! In Bequia we just took it easy, went to Doris for some shopping and left it the next morning after getting fresh and warm Baguette delivered to our boat. The passage to St Vincent was Ok but from St Vincent to St Lucia it was rough with a loft of changes in windspeed and direction and some unpleasant waves. It is said to be calming down in the next days and that would be nice for Andi, Anja and their girls. I filled up the gas tank for the Dinghyand we did some more shopping for food (Like 24 cans of Piton beer). Tomorrow morning we will head for Martinique.
