DEPARTURE FROM GRENADA TOWARDS BONAIRE

After leaving Woburn Bay we motored around to Prickly Bay and picked up a mooring ball for a week. We had to have our new AB dinghy repaired. This was done with the agreement of Budget marine under warranty.
So when the dinghy was repaired we sailed to Saint George's bay as a last staging point before we headed West to Bonaire. We fuelled up at the Saint John's Club fuel dock then spent the night at anchor before we headed out into the deep blue on the 10th January at 06.55.

Provisioning......

Then off we went..

initially quite calm but the seas soon mounted high...

This is our usual downwind rig...poled out genoa..
