Thanks for sharing, although I don't get as much work done at the office as I should since I am using a bunch of your pictures in my screen saver. Did you know you can set it to turn on after 3 seconds of inactivity??

1)
2) There was only this one tight slip available in Marigot Harbour where we had lunch. The owner of this yacht to my port side was screaming and yelling " You can't fit that thing in here !! " My response - " Just relax and watch ". He never said another word. LOL

Obviously he has never seen you dock a 50 footer
Probably the same look on their faces as the land lubbers at Smugglers in Port Credit. LOL
If you're heading back past Dominica Bob, let me know. I'll send you my buddies #. He says he can tell you where all kinds of amazing places to visit are in the area. He moved there 6 yrs ago and like you, loves to go adventure boating.

Bob, thanks for the lovely pictures; I eagerly await the start of your return adventure.
Thank you Griff and others for the kind words. I'm glad you are enjoying following along and maybe some of you will be inspired to one day do this sort of thing. If I can help any of you out, please let me know.
This phase of my adventure will soon come to an end as we fly home tomorrow afternoon. The boat is secure and put away in a first class marina ( IGY - Rodney Bay ) until my return sometime in mid April. When I come back, if time and weather permit, I would like to go another 70 to 100 miles south to see the Grenadines in the area of Bequia before turning around and heading back north. I will pick up Montserrat and St Kitts on the way north and then go to BVI either via St Maarten or Saba. That will all get figured out later. Again, thanks.

Hi Bob, no problem at all and you're very welcome.
modvp, I apologize for not getting in touch w your dad or Fiona when in Antigua. Time was very short by the the time we signed into the marina, cleared customs / immigration, got our room overlooking the harbour, cleaned up, dinner and then leave the next morning just not enough time. I thank you tho for your assistance. All the best,
Bob
