Okay, you should all bust my chops since the demand of my job have kept me from TTOL (and Facebook for that matter).

No, we haven't sailed over the edge of the world, but we are back aboard tonight hanging in Christmas Cove.

Our friends bailed on Spring Break in the Virgin Islands, so we're departing tomorrow morning from STT and headed wherever the wind takes us down island. Not sure where we are going to land, but we'll have a couple weeks to work our way back and go back to work at the end of this month.

I had two successful flights of the Mariner drone tonight and we have our satellite emergency systems/communications ready to go. We will have to look for open WiFi to get back, but if you are interested in tracking our progress, here's the URL:

SPOT Trace

We'll be posting photos and pictures here when we find WiFi:

I cant believe how crowded Christmas Cove looks. Been there a couple of times about 6 years ago and don't remember looking like this.

Christmas Cove is always busy. The free mooring and excellent snorkeling make it a very popular local spot.

It's a great stop on the way back to CYOA also.

We're Christmas Cove fans and usually stop there on our last night for a boat cleanup. Having Pizza Pi there makes it even better. There are a lot of boats camped out in Christmas Cove. We recognized some of the same boats in September, November and January. Some of those moorings are in rough shape, we anchor out. There are a lot of boats popping in all day for a visit.

Cheers, RickG
