BVI Update - Monday- noonish

We're having a great time. We left out of Road Town Harbour on Saturday morning and had to turn back after about 1/2 hour because I couldn't get the autopilot to work on the boat. Turns out to be a blown fuse. After 20 minutes at the dock, we're back underway.


We sailed east for a couple of hours (with 3 or 4 tack in there somewhere) to the Baths. This is an area with large rock configurations next to the sea. We anchored there and made lunch on the boat. In the afternoon, we headed back west/northwestward to Marina Cay, where we picked up a mooring and headed in to have dinner at a lovely restaurant on the water on this very small island.

Sunday morning we got underway and tacked upwind to Bitter End Yacht Club in the north sound on Virgin Gorda. We dingied over to a small cafe on the water called the Fat Virgin and had lunch. After luch, we checked out bitter end and Sabal Rock. Dinner on the boat.

This morning, we set sail at about 9 oclock and gybed downwind a few times to Trellis BAy. Currently I'm in a cyber cafe in Trellis Bay after having lunch. We'll stay here tonight and head to White Bay in Jost Van Dyke tomorrow. That was the mystery bay from a few posts ago. Libby was the only person to guess AND she got it right!!

Anyway, I'll try to post a photo or so from the phone (like the 2 below). Good photos, but not much text. I'm not goood at text messaging.

Til later - GW and Jan
