We hooked up and made many new friends in Jolly Harbour, we only stayed 3
nights, but at about Â40 per night it was good value, although the electricity
was 60Hz, so no washing machine or dishwasher.
We made great fiends with the boat next door, a Moody 54, Alice, owned by
Andrew and Celia, met Paul & Debra on Pandora, who were the Pandora we spoke
with on Christmas Night after they dragged their anchor and hit 2 boats in
Tobago Cays and we caught up with Ken & Judith again on Badgers Sett. A
really nice group of friends that you feel you have known a lifetime â funny old
thing this cruising life. We did drinks on each others boats and went to the
Pizza place on their 2 for 1 Tuesday Night Special â really nice.
But then we all set off in different ways, Alice is going the same route
through Bermuda to the USA after watching Classicsâ Week in Antigua. Pandora are
heading to English Harbour to carry out their repairs during the hurricane
season and Badgers Sett we think are going down to Grenada to wait out the
hurricanes.
This is probably our plan for the 2012 season, loiter around Grenada so
that if a hurricane tracks our way we can run south and out to sea and relative
safety, so we could be there from June 1 to Dec 1, but thatâs a long way
off.
