Sail from North Sound to Anegada


After closely monitoring the weather breakup through the night the girls set out from North Sound, Virgin Gorda bound for Anegada. The girls setup jack lines and donned harnesses and PFDs in the early hours of the morning and motored out of North Sound. They raised sails as they entered the Necker Island Passage bound for Anegada. The girls watched the squalls blow through the passage and   the southern Anegada Reef as we approached the anchorage at the north end of the island. The girls navigated the challenging approach with ease and were settled in at Anegada before lunch. After a quick rest, the girls headed to shore to explore the island.
