In addition to Horizon...

Once you are in jolly harbour, hang around West Point Bar with the yachties. Gordon the Commandant will be more than willing to give sailing advise. In his absence, many locals including Red (local) or Tanner (Canadian expat) - both avid racers- can provide insight.

Ask the bartenders (Kevin still there?) to point someone out. They are a great bunch.

If you get a chance whilst not on board, Al Porto pizzas are highly recommended. RSVP req'd on some nights such as 2 4 1.

Epicurean is a bit overpriced but fully stocked. If available, hire a $20 golf cart from Randy at suntours near castaways beach bar or from jolly harbour golf carts near bank.

While in Barbuda, hire a local to canoe you to Frigate Reserve. This time of year the males put on a mating show. Two hours is lots of time as the boat ride is short. More info on barbudaful.net

The beaches are some of the best you have ever seen.

enjoy your sail. Antigua and Barbuda are usually safe, quiet and serene.

cheers,
