Brent said: Ahoy All TTOL! Brent Here! Alive and healing up. I will have a minority of the yachts in service for Thanksgiving and a majority of the yachts in service for Christmas. Secret Oasis, the Voyage 580 in Nanny Cay boat yard lost it's main sail, replacement on the way, otherwise very good. The 6 yachts I secured to the small mangrove island in Sea Cow Bay all moved less than 1'. With varying degrees of work I expect them all to be ready by Christmas, if not sooner. I am flying in my own surveyor and other tradesmen to facilitate the quality and speed of the repairs. Thanks to all those sharing Positive ... Anything! Fair Winds, Brent Amen Captain Brent! Great news and good speed on your repairs and your recovery!!

Ahoy All,
I am lucky that thanks to hard work in August I have yachts that I can put back into service by Christmas if I can get the parts, and lucky that I have the support of my yacht Owners and my Guests. Since starting on Nov 1 we cleared the decks on the 6 yachts in the trees and brought the first of those boats to the dock, and painted the bottom on the 58’ and launched it. On Nov 10 I received written authorization from the Insurance Company to act as General Contractor for the repairs and I received the reparation quotes for each yacht from the Riggers. Restaurants and businesses are re-opening up every day. Utilities and food supplies are improving every week. Riteways Grocery store is fully stocked with fresh Dairy and Triple A USDA Beef. The nautical side is clear and gentle and sublime as 50 years ago, there are less boats, and all the old fashioned beach bars are new and clean and green . I have power, water, wifi, clean laundry, and a Big Cup Of Tea. I am healthy and energized and looking forward to the next Great Challenge of my Life!
Fair Winds, Brent

Fullmooners said: I am always amazed at the lack of respect and courteous behavior that some display on this forum. Everyone has opinions but maybe keep them to yourself. I prefer to read the positivity given the tragic circumstances in the islands. If someone is doing well then I am excited for the islands and the boat owners!
Great news Captain Brent! AMEN !!!!

Annoddddd, may I suggest Anegada Beach Cottages? They are on the west side of the island. Very quiet and the water is much calmer there. Not much for snorkeling. But for swimming it is excellent. McKenzie is awesome to work with and his pricing is very fair. We are going mid December. This will be our 2nd year in a row there. We absolutely love it. www.anegadabeachcottages.com/ The best number to reach him is 284-544-0739
Go Irish!!

Anegada seems to be a mini Jost Van Dyke. Cow Wreck and Big Bamboo are a lot of fun during the day. But before sunset the island is pretty quiet and very dark with no moon. The dock area seems a little busier at night with boats that choose to stay over. This has become our favorite island. Not much to do. But is that a bad thing? The islanders are very accommodating. Several times we've scheduled dinner (call before 4pm) and we were the only ones there. You will love Anegada.
Go Irish!!
