Our dinghy had been towed to the Duncan Town jetty for Myron (the bird man), who was also the island outboard mechanic to service and fix the problem. The motor ready for collection, we said we’d come fetch the dinghy and our friends Duane, Karen, Cathy and Ed, said they come with .... and expedition to village was planned.

We went ashore at the ‘Airplane Restuarant & Bar’ which unfortunately is still in disrepair following Hurricane Dorian which put 8 foot of water into the Restuarant.

After shopping at Maxines store, and finalising business with Myron, we met up with our friends at the Perseverance Tavern, which specially opened for us to get a few cold Kaliks (beer)

All aboard the dinghy for the 4.5 mile trip back to our yachts. This is going down the small boat channel cutting through Ragged Island to the sea

The wind died and we had perfect condition - except for the flying termites which flooded our boat once the lights come on, and took days and days of vacuuming to pick up all the dead termites in very crevice and locker.
