It took almost two weeks, but we walked the beach from Dinghy's Beach Bar down to the beached sailboat. There is nothing more relaxing and peaceful than 2 or 3 hours on the beach wandering, for us anyway. We parked at Dinghy's and had a drink and told them we would be back later for something to eat. We talked to the owner and he said things are going good and said that now they are at the point of needing reservations for nighttime. We had Pico De Gallo (salsa and tortillas chips) and Conch Fritters with spicy Remoulade when we returned for a snack. Along the way I took a few pics of the super yachts in the bay. The big one with the reverse bow is 325 feet long with a garage door in the side for the smaller boats. The yacht is worth 250M and is owned and by the guy who developed Microsoft Word and Excel programs. Well there you go. I took a pic tonight from our balcony and of course it has lights underwater around the entire ship. It's grainy.
Walked pass the new "K" bar/restaurant and their loungers were half full, but on the way back they were almost full. I looked up from the beach and could tell it was not the beach bar from before and didn't feel like I could just go up the stairs and have a couple of drinks. The Karakters Beach Bar is gone folks. We didn't go in. At Mary Boons all the loungers were full and doing a good business.
Then we came upon the beached 42 foot sailboat. As a former sailboat builder it broke my heart to see it lying on its side and I thought from a distance that I could repair it until I got closer and realized that it is now beyond repair. I took a picture through a hatch and the inside is gone. I was surprised that the marine hardware on the deck has not been stripped yet and the steering wheel is still there. There is a lot of valuable marine hardware still there. I think it will be there for some time to come.
