About Christine

The one that makes it all happen

Legally in Grenada

Clearing customs was uneventful other than the overtime fee to work on a Sunday. So it only took 1.5 hours. We are currently motoring up the coast to drop anchor and go ashore to restock with food and adult beverages.

It’s a beautiful day. Sunny, blue sky, blue water it’s awesome.

Prickly bay Grenada

Beautiful this morning, slept I’m till 8:30 when the boat behind us wanted to move. Well we did set pretty much on top of them last night. Oh well, we are only going to be here to clear customs. They probably should have slept in too. And then we would be gone out of their way.

Off to clear customs

I got up a little early and enjoyed the sunrise in this dolly little anchorage. The local boat just simply run at full throttle everywhere. When Christine woke up we went for an explore. We found the pizza place without nearly the adventure we had looking for it last night. The huge sign makes it almost impossible to miss. We went on a long walk past all the boat yards and found a couple street venders where we thought about doing lunch. We were gone for a couple hours. When we got back to the mother ship Wayne was just getting motivated.

We all went ashore to budget marine to pick up some supplies we used the last bit of our two cycle oil and a few othe preventative maintenance items. We went to find the street vendor but I guess he had sold out cause he was gone so we hit the sammich shop in the back of the confidence store for a snack.

Christine called the electrician to come take a look at the inverter we have been waiting for a while tho. Also we did get an email from the yard asking about the inverter.

For those that don’t know what an inverter is. It’s a electrical device that changes the 12 volts that we have on board to 110 AC like we have in the house. We really don’t use it for much besides frozen drinks and a couple of power tools so other than the cost its not that big of deal.

Here is the view from the bow.
