MUSTIQUE TO CANOUAN, 26 Jan

Mustique charged 200 ECdollars for a days mooring, which could be extended to three days. There is no anchoring permitted unless granted by the harbour chief. The mega-yachts anchored because moorings were limited to 60 foot boats.

After three nights we decided it was time to move South so as to maintain a loose schedule in order to sail back up to Martinique for the arranged repair to our hull (caused by aggressive British captain in Cape Verde).

The next island to the South was Canouan, and this was a mere three hours easy cruising. The sea was quite rough around the North of Canouan and the gusts in the harbour of Charlestown were crazy for the first night but then settled down. The anchorage was just off the Tamarind Hotel which had a beautiful beach.
