True Colours

James Scrimshaw

Tue 27 Jan 2015 11:26

So Sarah has now left True Colours. We hope she enjoyed her stay with us, despite the heat. At least on the last sail we saw Dolphins, a pod of perhaps 20; they only stayed with us a short while, james would like to think we were sailing too fast for them, but in reality they were probably more interested in catching fish. We also saw numerous flying fish.
Access to a decent chandlery has allowed us to get some spares, as well as replace the ensign.
Rosemary and James will now stay here until Thursday, then overnight at Marigot Bay, before the longish trip to Bequia.
