All our repairs are done, new sail fitted, everything washed and cleaned (we had a US$100 charge for water for one week in the marina) and the wind is good if a bit strong, so we cleared out yesterday and will depart through the 1600hrs bridge, stopping outside briefly for dinner at anchor before setting sail for the BVIs.
SM is a dismal island. For the first time in our three visits here we hired a car and went to see the French side; it turns out to be every bit as grotty as the Dutch. We won't ever be back.

It is only 85nm to the BVIs, so we will be there for breakfast tomorrow.
