Cracking sail from St. Maarten to St. Kitts. Quite big seas and lots of spray. 2 reefs in the main and a no. 3 jib. 53.5 miles in 7 1/2 hours. Had 4 days in the Island and met up with Bob and Rose Trickey who were on a cruise on Britannia. Hired a car for the day and toured the island. Not the best of weather with some heavy showers but a good time was had by all. Had a look at the new superyacht harbour which is being built. Will be some place when finished.
