1. The perfect greeting after
12 hours continuous travelling |
 |
2. A free rum punch for elevenzies
on the first day. Incredibly, this free standing conch of flowers
remained on the table for the entire week - emphasising the
point that cats don’t heel over! |
 |
3. The Moorings 4500, which
is a 45ft catamaran designed and built by Robertson and Caine
in South Africa. |
 |
4. The bow seat is always a
refreshing and favourite spot. At the time this photo was taken,
the cat was averaging 11 knots. |
 |
5. The huge goal post which
spanned the cockpit housed the main sheet traveller and meant
that the cockpit was free of any sheets or ropes. |
 |
6. Neptunes Treasure restaurant
in Anegada. A featureless strip of land stuck out in the Atlantic
and only 28 ft above sea level. Nevertheless, it provided the
most thrilling day of swimming and snorkelling of the entire
week. |
 |
7. Make no bones about it -
the Caribbean is an expensive place which heavily relies on
imports. This bunch of groceries came to US $36. |
 |
8. A panorama of The Baths.
A strange beach landscape of rich golden sand and huge rock
boulders scattered around, but great for snorkelling. |
 |
9. The helmsman had excellent
all round vision, although it could have done with a slightly
larger wheel. |
 |
10. Sundowners on the forward
trampoline. |
 |
11. Paradise at Foxy’s,
a very well known and popular restaurant bar on Jost Van Dyke. |
 |
12. A steering seat made for
two. |
 |
13. Marina Cay, an excellent
anchorage with an excellent night life. At the peak of the island
is a wind swept bar which has conch shell blowing during the
early evening happy hour. |
 |
14. The distinctive colours
of the ‘Pussers’ chain of stores. This is at Marina
Cay. |
 |
15. The walks ashore through
the lush green vegetation can provide these small windows of
a view |
 |
16. The colourful Pussers bar
at Soper’s Hole. |
 |
17. A typical Caribbean play
area.
|
 |
18. Saba Rock viewed from the
Bitter End. |
 |
19. A picture of perfect relaxation.
These cats can sleep 8, and finding a quiet spot for sunbathing
is not an issue. |
 |
20. Sailing in the late afternoon
sun can offer some spectacular light. |
 |
21. A platter of local fruit
produce like this proved to be a very cost effective breakfast. |
 |
22. The PBO babes. For the
ladies, this was sunbathing paradise with onboard comforts to
match. |
