11 days and counting...
...Until the St. Martin sailing trip! It can't come soon enough!
We had the crew over for brunch on Sunday to go over some final preparations. Everything seems to be coming together. I'm slightly nervous -- this will be the largest yacht I've ever captained, and in unfamiliar waters -- but I'll get over that. We've got all the charts and cruising guides we need to get around. I'm especially looking forward to the passage from Anguilla to St. Barthelemy, which promises to be a splendid five-or-so hour beam reach in deep water. And the food, which promises to be so much better than what was available in the BVIs: French/Creole.
11 days and a wakeup!
