We pulled up our anchor  Thursday 8th of January, 2009 at 08:21 and headed for Deshaies, Guadolupe 16:18.04N 61:47.78W

 

It was great to be off and away once again, tempting as it was to stay in Antigua for ever. Silk Sheets sailed in company with T-Rex across the way to Guadeloupe, a French island.

 

Gazza and I went fishing and caught a couple of reef fish for dinner apart from that we just took it easy.
