Well Hi again,
The last blog we did was in Mustique as we were thinking
of leaving the next day to head to the sleepy Tobago Cays.
Well do you remember the words from the film Jaws, 'Just
when you thought it was safe to go back into the water'-----well just as we had
settled on deck relaxing for a lazy evening to watch the sunset
-------------------- we were hit by a 52 m/ 600 ton Motor yacht
!!
It was a pretty scary incident, the Motor yacht came into our moorings in a
designated area whilst trying to lift his anchor. We sustained some damage but
we are ok. We are having the boat thoroughly checked in St Lucia.
We will tell you about the incident at some point which makes for
a nail biting read but we are not posting details at present.
My thoughts afterwards strayed to 'Why didn't we buy
a camper van instead' and 'should have married a boring guy who
liked dominos and kite flying instead'--------hmmmm !!
And so we sailed a couple of days later for the
Tobago Cays (no where near Tobago) approx 25-30 miles south of St Vincent in the
Grenadines, shaken but in one piece............................
Love Tina and Tony x x
