True Colours - Off Again



Position 14:48.91N 061:15.98W
 
So Andrej left last Thursday, and Doug left this morning on a flight to Antigua.  We had a few good days in St Lucia, including hiring an APV to go round the island, visiting a nature trail and a live volcano, where we all indulge in mud baths.  At the end of the day we dropped Josh off at the airport before returning to the other end of the island.
 
The crew is now James, Rosemary, Toby, Sarah and Nadine.  We had planned to anchor overnight, possibly in the bay at Portsmouth, Dominica, but decided it would be late when we arrived there, and ten we would be late arriving in Antigua;  so instead we plan to continue overnight, and should arrive in Antigua about 13.00 tomorrow.
 
So fat the sea has been kind to our new crew, giving sightings of flying fish, a pod of dolphins that played around our bow for a while, and two sperm whales that we passed about 20m away on the strboard bow.
 
Wind is exactly as forecast, about 20 knots, and slightly on the bow, so generally we are making about 7 knots.
