Grenada - November 17th-23rd November

Our initial time in Grenada was spent sorting out the boat for the survey - all went well although the wind decided to blow over 25 knots for the sea trial, when we had to sail with full main and jib. The out of water survey was delayed til Saturday after a Caribbean misunderstanding "oh you mean this Thursday" when I called up to reconfirm the day before...

Tommy arrived Friday evening to join the crew with his usual abundance of energy. We enjoyed some social events in Grenada that weekend - a pot luck BBQ and karaoke at a marina on Saturday night (where ALL of the Heat wave crew participated) and the regular Sunday afternoon beach BBQ on Hog island. Charlotte got to have a play date with Jade (who she knew from last year on Wild Vanilla) and they also spent the Sunday afternoon on Hog Island playing for hours with bits and pieces found on the beach - who needs fancy toys??

We got to meet up with a lot of cruising friends for a quick hello and good bye before heading north early Monday morning.
