5/9 to 5/11 - On Friday the 9th, we weighed anchor, departed Portsmouth and Prince Rupert Bay and set sail for Les Saintes
The 30 mile journey was uneventful until unnoticed, our bow line came untied and fell overboard during our entrance into the harbor. As we tried to maneuver in the anchorage at Terre de Haut, it became entangled in the prop and we were dead in the water. Luckily we were able to grab a mooring ball and Rick went over the side. Thanks to Rick and a little help from the winch, we managed to pull it free.
The island of Terre de Haut, or 'Highland' in French, is a busy tourist destination, jammed with motor scooters and interesting shops and restaurants. We spent three nights here because Richard ran into an old college friend that was working his way South to Guyana on his sailboat.
