April 13 - the started with docking at the fuel termimal and loading 374 litres of
Diesel to the starboard tank with a crazy cost per litre of US$1,49.
Mission accomplished we started our sail to Tortoga BVI a 80nm voyage. Took the opportunity to replace the damaged navigation monitor for a beautiful 22 inch
LED screen. Kenneth prepared a healthy salad lunch to make calories room for spaghetti bolognese for dinner.
We should stop at Cooper Island for overnight rest, since we would arrive to Tortoga late at night.
20:55 we anchored at Manchioneel Bay on the east side of the island at 17.3 m with 50m chain laid out. It took almost 12hs to get here. Very crowded and popular place, I counted more than 20 boats anchored or moored here. Since we haven’t cleared in (meaning customs, immigration and health paper work) we have to stay onboard until we reach Road Town/Tortoga for formalities.
