    That's awesome you fixed that mooring! It scary to think if you tied up to it to have it give way and you loose your dinghy. The clear waters beautiful waters is what brings cruisers to the Caribbean. It is amazing to see. Water so clear if it wasn't for the shadow of you boat you would swear you were sitting on the bottom. Y'all are capturing it perfectly. Can't wait to be there also. Keep living the dream.

    That underwater footage was incredible, loved the turtle, and also the way the sharks were just so chill. All that wildlife just casually mooching about down there.

    Tobago Keys is on of my favorite place in the Caribbeans. If you plan and are able to got north, also check Les Saintes, St-Barth, the VI and the Bahamas. It is nice every where and the wind will east south east all winter. It is a sailing paradise when there is no hurricane. Very nice video.

    Ahh now you are in my old stomping grounds. Spend about 6 yrs in the eastern Caribbean. I thinks it is some of the the very best consistently wonderful sailing areas of the world. Glad to see some coral there. Very good sea life. Nice video. Great underwater shots. Spotted Eagles, one of my all time favorites!
    When we were in Canouan there was almost NOTHING there. Usually just none to one or two boats there. Tobago keys are very special. If you get a change, the reefs behind the Tobago keys and in front of Mayreau are 5X better than Tobago key reefs. Stupendous snorkeling and scuba. From 3’ deep down to a hundred. Dramatic and rich.

    Have you guys experienced 'Kick 'em Jenny' yet? I saw on your Instagram you'd made it to Carriacou, just wondered if you passed it on your way.

    Fab-U-lous! Loved those underwater scenes - amazing! Reminds me of when I encountered my first reef shark - a damned big one! Swam right past me along the reef within 12 inches of my face. I had nowhere to go! It didn’t even blink at me or alter its course 1 cm. I never took my eyes off it and held my breath - even though i knew it only eats the small reef fishes. Amazing beautiful creature. Also, your sail there looked equally fab! It doesn’t get better - enjoy those times - hope that current lock down still allows you some great snorkelling. Happy sailing Skippers! :-)
