Lexington - Captain Bob: Mustique



We are now in Mustique, a small private island just south of Bequia. It is an island that is leased from the government of St Vincent by the Mustique Company. It was started by a Scotsman in 1940s. It is now home of the rich and famous with owners like Paul McCarthy, the owner on Acosta, Tommy Hilfingerand and Princess Margaret and other less known rich.
We took a tour of the island to point out the Estates. They have a small private airport for propeller planes. It is a “company town”operation. The company provides housing for the workers, their own power plant, desalination plant and maintenance plant. It is a beautiful maintained island. They have mooring balls for visitors. There are small shops and grocery stores and liquor stores. The three policemen are under the power of St Vincent but are directed, chosen and paid by the company. I am sure they might be paid to direct their vision the “other way” on occasion.
