Yesterday evening started off in St Georges Dinghy and Yacht club. There was supposed to be food laid on followed by prize giving for the boats that came up from Antigua. In the end there was no food \u2013 something to do with the cook going AWOL and no substitute available. The prize giving did occur though. Windancer IV won a couple of prizes in the Multihull division \u2013 first and last. That’s because she’s the only Multihull in the fleet going east this year. First prize was a bottle of rum. I say was because now it’s just a bottle. Rum punches both at the bar and back on the boat were the order of the evening. We stayed up quite late chatting about stuff and each other so we’ve learned one or two things. So far no one seems to be a closet axe murderer which is comforting.<\/p>\n

Today’s goal is to leave as soon as we can. There are some lows coming in from the west which we really would like to get ahead of. The forecast suggests that the faster boats than can leave sooner will suffer the least from the bad weather associated with these fronts. Before we leave we have three or four chores. We need to have two of the reefing lines fixed. A rigger is due this morning to fix these. We need to fill up the fuel tanks. We need to do one last reprovisioning and we need to check out. With a bit of luck we’ll be off soon after midday. We’ll see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
