So here I am, on a solo trip to Grenada to do some work on Anastasia
which(who?) is hauled out in Clarkes Court boatyard. I had thought this
was going to be a total working trip, but then some cruising friends, Blair and
Edie, contacted Andrea a couple of weeks ago to say they had seen Anastasia in
the boatyard and whereabouts were we. It would be antisocial for me not to
go out for a couple of drinks with them, right?
Well, to be honest it was drinks Thursday evening, and drinks Friday
lunchtime followed up by drinks and chicken wings at happy hour Friday evening
and then drinks and a swim at Calivigny island today (Sunday) followed by a BBQ
and drinks on Honalee this evening.
But I have been ticking off some of the chores as well.
Pretty boring stuff (and a lot of getting worse before it gets better) but
here are a few pics I took.
How the sail battens end up if you forget to loosen the topping lift before
gybing (a catamaran sail has a large roach) ![]() A try out of a replacement seat cover ![]() Pan-fried chips (ie check your apartment has an oven tray before you go
ahead and buy oven chips) ![]() Honalee hospitality, out by Calivigny island ![]() It could be worse. ![]() |
