We spent 3 nights there, cleaning the boat—-boy was it salty!—-fixing a few things and catching up on sleep.

Then yesterday, 2 May, we went about 40 miles north, much of it under engine as the wind died on us, to a lovely anchorage in Reedville. Lovely sunny day though still a chill in the air, and a smooth anchorage surrounded by countryside and some smart white painted old traditional wooden houses.

And now heading up to Solomon’s Island for tonight. Again, some ok slow sailing in the morning, but wind has died and we’re under engine.
