Well, what a great time we had. Bequia is a beautiful place to visit and the launch week for Tradewinds was a lot of fun. the launch party ended around midnight last night and we were up at 0330 to catch a fast launch to St Vincent, a plane to Barbados and then another plane up to Antigua. We arrived in Jolly Harbour at around lunch time and as I write this, Barbara is curled up on the couch (yes, these catamarans have couches - ish) asleep. It is hot but we have air conditioning (on a yacht? yes!) as well. I have to take a shower and then we are off to get some groceries and then a few beers and a meal.
The boat we are on this week is called Justine (last week it was 'Restless Spirit).
We sail on Saturday for a cruise around the Antigua sailing and diving grounds, where Barbara and I are there to watch and learn what goes on while entertaining the guests onboard.. There is a good routine to the way things are run and it is up to us to learn the ropes. We have a week ashore as well, next, in the BVI, after which we are not sure where we will be going.
