True Blue Bay, Grenada. First time we are below 12 degrees latitude. We left Carriacou this morning at 6.45am. We arrived at 2.30pm. First part of the trip was gentle, the latter part horrendous as we got hit by major squalls and unlikely south easterly winds. Current was also hard on the nose for the last stretch. But we made it!
