Position 12.34.905N 61.26.236W
Left Bequia at 0930 for sail south back to Union Island.
Wind mostly aft of beam 12-20 knots, with full main and working jib got a good
pace on. 3 other yachts followed us south, we were not racing but we did open up
the gap and they were all bigger than us. None have come to same anchorage as we
are back in Frigate Island, with less wind around we shall be able to launch
dinghy to get ashore Arrived here at 1440 having completed 32 miles. Only 3
boats here presently last time there were over 10.
On the trip south John saw a whale, twice. Well its
tail. Today straight after checking the anchor has taken properly he went and
did some hull cleaning before getting back onboard. Sails all put away and boat
almost back so we can get in our bunks.
