Day 7
Sailed from Spanish town to Virgin Gourda Sound -
where we anchored near Saba Rock - the home of Bitter End Yacht club, about
1 mile from Richard Branson`s Necker Island. We approached the Sound through a
narrow bouyed channel through the coral reef where heavy surf was crashing
ashore. It made the trip a bit scarey - but the benefit was a beautifully
sheltered turqouise watered sound. - Gin clear. Anchored next to a very pretty
Dutch Sloop.
Helen, sporting the Piton Beer Apron, ( gifted to
MM by Tom`s cruise pals - Dani - Tory - Kingy & Nick ) rustled up
Pancakes and Bacon with Maple syrup - yummy! ... Meanwhile Peter swam
ashore to Prickly Pear Island.
