The wind and waves were on the nose again for the trip up to Carriacou. If you check our track it almost looks like we were sailing. Well we were but with only the main sale and the engines running. 25 knots of wind and some pretty big waves we covered the boat in salt. Our 30 mile day clocked in at over 50 over water and took us about 7 hours.

Played with the SSB radio on the way yesterday. Was able to update the firmware and get the laptop talking to it. Configured it to use my new Ham license and was able to connect to a station in Florida. I wasn’t able to get the email to send for some reason. So while y’all were busy attending to computer issues on Monday so was I. Except I was bouncing along the islands annoying a cold Stag beer.

This anchorage had 2 other boats in it. So basically we are all alone here. Hidden behind a small spit of land and 1/2 mile from shore and am still able to pick up wifi.

We drug the fishing lines all day with out a bite. The lures did get hit when we came across from Trinidad as evidenced in the large gashes in the lure and teeth marks on the cedar plug but didn’t see any new ones when we pulled them in this time.

Christine motored right up to the ball in 20 knots of wind and we were on the ball in no time flat.

Coasted into the anchorage at Salt island.
