We motored quite a lot in the last 24 hours as the wind died away to nothing at times. Tom and Ian swam off the back yesterday, the Skipper keeping a watchful eye for sharks and wind.
Depending on what happens with the wind today, we should make it into St Lucia within the next 24 hours. Dry land! Wet Rum Punch!
It'll take a day or two to get settled and sorted back into the life of the land. I am really looking forward to walking more than 3 paces.
Its been a good crossing. The weather has been very good, mainly steady winds.
If we turned left, we could be in Barbados for late lunch, how bizarre.
All best - I shall update this as soon after we arrive as I can but customs, immigration, sorting the boat out and cleaning along with the due process of marina check in will take up most of the first 24 hours. Oh and that long uninterrupted sleep. The longest anyone has had for 18 days is 5 hours so I think we will all sleep well.
