St Barths to Antigua

With the Easterly trade winds at an all time low, we decided yesterday afternoon to do an overnight sail to Antigua. (80nm)

Good decision!!!

It was pretty much a one tack beat in very flat seas and 8 to 10 knots of wind under an “almost full” moon. Nothing exciting, just a VERY nice sail. No water hit the deck. 

Now the plan is to spend 3 or 4 days here and then back to st Martin where Leslie will leave us. Deb and I will then head to st Thomas for final prep before sailing north to Bermuda at the end of the month!
