Tom and I had a great gentle sail back to Nanny Cay, Tortola, yesterday. We have been to Anegada several times now but it never loses it's charm.

The "stuck" anchor is going to be quite major. The entire housing has to be removed to get at the windlass. So far this has involved getting out every single tool (and there are a lot) and spreading them all over the interior and exterior of the boat. Tom has popped up and down the anchor locker, scraping the top of his head each time so that the top of his head, where there is no hair to protect the scalp, became a sea of blood. No blue air yet but there's always today when the task moves on to the next stage. I fear another boat unit.........

We shall spend the next three days battling with anchors and boat cleaning- home on Monday morning. Can thoroughly recommend 2 months in the Caribbean during the UK winter!
Tom and Jos.
