So there we were sailing from Mustique to the Tobago Cays with Fiona’ sister Robbie on board, (seen sharing the steering above), lovely weather and expecting a simple days sail.  Just off the top of the Island of Canouan the radio comes to life from the yacht charter company ‘the Moorings’.  Three divers have gone missing and any yachts in the vicinity are requested to look out for them.  We are in the exact spot so immediately drop the sails and join in with several of the charter firms boats for a search.  Luckily they are found safe on the coast an hour later so all is well. Makes one realise what little support there is out here – no coastguard, no SAR, just who’s about at the time. Anyway sails back up, fishing line out for 5 minutes and bang – we are into a big fish (sorry Hugh), a really nice 15 lb Tuna solves our supper problem.  Soon after, safely anchored in the Cays I clean the fish and chuck the remains over the side and within 10 minutes I am snorkelling with a large Sting ray and an Eagle Ray plus a multitude of reef fish, plus there is a friendly Turtle circling about.  Wonder what will happen tomorrow??
