Sydney's House of Peace and Love

The girls Mediterranean Moored the boats side by side at Sydney's House of Peace and Love around 6:00 pm. They had the opportunity to get some showers on shore and relax on the dock with the proprietor, Strawberry. Sad to see Delaney go, they wrote a note in the sand for us to email to her while she sat in the Miami airport. We settled in and enjoyed a great meal ashore, our boats tied just feet away. The girls are heading to bed early in preparation for their last day in the BVI. We plan to head around the south side of Tortola and get a full day of upwind sailing in to finish up our fantastic trip.

Trellis Bay to Little Harbour Jost Van Dyke

The girls headed to shore to see Delaney off this morning. We enjoyed a cup of coffee on shore and said our goodbyes. We were sad to see her head back for school. We set sail late morning for the southern end of Guana Island to snorkel monkey point and its large schools of bait fish. After lunch on the mooring we set out downwind for Jost Van Dyke and the shelter of little harbour. We practiced our downwind sailing skills and really enjoyed the sail. The girls have learned so much so quickly that it now all comes naturally to them and the sailing has become second nature. The girls docked at Jost Van Dyke in a maneuver called a Mediterranean mooring. The docking is difficult and the girls showed what they have learned and breezed through it. It is great to see the girls applying their newly acquired skills.
