We arrived back in Grenada a month ago after a 10
month break-quite a long time to have left her
most people where hauling out for the end of their
season it felt strange being launched at the
start of ours. She looked good after a frantic week
of work but would everything work? Well most did
after a bit of coaxing from Jim all except the
dinhgy engine all choked up, but it was nice to be on the water
again.
We have made our way north and at present are
anchored in Falmouth Harbour Antigua The sailing up here was
some of the best we have ever had, when we arrived
it was The Classic Yacht Regatta and now its Antigua Race
week.
We've been working on the boat getting her ready
for crossing back to the Med. in May about the 15th
The fridge packed in while on our way here so we
called the guy up to fix her that done the freezer decided
to give up so back came the guy it's taken 3
days to sort the freezer out. While this was going on I managed to
block one of the heads with a piece of kitchen
towel (by accident)Jim was not impressed at having to strip it right down to
clear it.
So it's not all sunbathing &
sundowners!!!
I have put on some photos leaving some of the
anchorages on the way up here and also the classic boats in
Antigua
Quite sad really, but perhaps we will be
back!
