Just before we left Chatham Bay we had a 40 knot squall
come through with heavy rain.
Left Chatham Bay at 1000, anchor well bedded in and took
a little persuasion to come out. As wind most of the 5 miles to Tobago Cays 20
degrees off the bow decided to motor otherwise would need to have spent and hour
packing dinghy away and another one putting back together. Sun shone all the was
across, went close to Palm Island where the upmarket people go for holidays in
their beach front condos. Looked around whole of Cays before deciding where to
anchor which is not too far from the beach BBQ area and bar. The Cays very
pleasant with only 15-20 boats here we can only see another 5, not crowded at
all so one benefit of the world lockdown.
John has checked the anchor is set, needed a little turn
so dived down to do it as in just 4 meters of water. Whilst swimming around he
saw a Ray go by under him, no idea which one though.
