The Caribbean and Back

Chaser 2

In Mid 2006 Yvonne and I departed Spain for the Caribbean, to see our voyage
with the ARC from the Canary Islands to the Caribbean click on this link

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMeenOdSWXg

After 9 years of cruising Martinique, St Lucia, St Vincent, Bequia and the
Grenadines to Grenada and onto Trinidad and Torbago. Domincan Republic,
Haiti, Jamaica, Cuba, The Dutch Antilles of Curacao and Bonaire and onto
Venezuela, we employed a crew to bring Chaser back to Gibraltar in June
2015.

Their voyage can be seen here. Technology has moved on over the past 10
years and the movie quality and their movie expertise is a little better
than mine of 2006
