Sail to the main island of Grenada
22 06, 17
We left at 8:00 AM and got here just after 2:30PM. It was a very nice sail for all but the last 8 miles when the wind died. We had 10 to 15kts of wind until the last two hours when the wind dropped to 5kts or less. At this point we were down wind sailing and the 4+ft swells were cause the sails to flog and back at each wave. To save the sails from damage I turned on the engine and we motored the last few miles into Clarks Court Bay where we dropped anchor. The water is not very clean here. I think it is a result of the 2 days of down pour they had with TS BRET. It should clear up, but then again, I may move to L'Anse Aux Epines (aka Prickly Bay) in the next day or two.
Cinco was sick today, so I have to clean the main rug. He may have been sea sick cause the 4+ft swells were on the beam and making it rolley down below.
