As I noted on the last post, I am updating this in February, 2025. I knew I was far behind but I didn’t realize I’d missed a whole week. On the 27th of November we FINALLY left Woburn Bay bound for a day or so in Carriacou. We don’t get far under power before we…

Another great day in Grenada. We deke into town via the bus and get some groceries and another auto-bilge pump at IWW. We’re planning on heading to Cariacou tomorrow so want to get the boat ready. Sure enough I bought the 3/4″ bilge pump when I wanted the 1″ but luckily the manual bilge is…

Morning dawns as usual. Another nice day in Grenada, we can expect rain any time so can’t leave the boat with hatches open. In the morning I start calling recommended local engine mechanic companies. Most of them say something like “We can come out in a few weeks” although one does say they can come…

Started out looking a bit sketchy but became hot and sunny soon enough. I forgot to renew the SIM card by 6 am this morning so we’ll have to find WiFi somewhere today. It’s Walking Club Day and today we’re meeting at Secret Harbour for a walk to Grooms Beach, which is actually not too…

I’ve been renewing my Spanish lessons the last couple of mornings. I get up, launch the dinghy (we haul it up every night now), make coffee and sit on the foredeck practicing Spanish for 45 minutes or so. Not at bad way to start the day. This morning Axel promised to come over and help…

It’s another hot one and it’s been very windy every day. Rough to drive around in our dinghy but helpful keeping things cool on board. Except when it rains which is very often, tho not for long. When that happens we have to close the hatches and it gets very warm, very fast down below.…

Can’t remember why we were back at Clarke’s but we run into Nils who has put his old SUPs near the security desk and we agree to take them. They’re a bit awkward even when folded and it’s a crowded dinghy ride back to the boat. Before noon we go to Hog Island to work…

We are planning to go into town and hit Island Water World and other stores but yesterday’s rain caused more flooding make us think twice. The Clarke’s Court market is only half open from the same problem. Still manage to get some fresh water and bakery (EC$35 for a loaf of bread and two cheese…

More heavy rain. Starting to feel like Tuesdays are the big rain days. Really hoping the starter arrives so we can get moving. We’ve been stranded here in Woburn Bay since we left the dock.

Gotta tell ya, I didn’t record much for this day. I fondly remember that my legs are in big pain from Saturday’s romp. Wasn’t bad yesterday on the walk, a little sore but today my thighs are aching. Getting on and off a dock and into the dinghy is very sketchy. Christy makes some banana…
