DISTANCE TRAVELLED: 235 MILES
WIND: 17 KNOTS FROM THE E.
WEATHER: MOSTLY SUNNY
NEWS:
At 13:00 local time (GMT -4) TIMONEER arrived to Grenada. We were able to proceed directly to our moorings at Prickly Bay Marina. The Customs and Immigration have a building in the marina area, so this was easily accomplished. The exception is for the Antipodeans amongst us, who must go to the airport, and apply for a special visa on account of the World Cup of Cricket. We hope they are allowed to stay!
It is nice to be in this marina again. It has not changed much in the last 7 years, but all around there is new construction and reconstruction. This is more the result of a terrible hurricane in September 2004 than any attempt to modernize.
Time to wash down and store away the gear from the passage.
Best regards,
Robert
