5/18 : Good exit at ~3pm from St Thomas. Motored into the wind to the end of St Johns before turning southward toward Grenada under sail. 5/19 : Good night watch but several system problems. Furlers acting weak. Winches browning out nav. Fridge stopped cooling. Weird electrical smell we could not place (later we figured it out when the alternator reg caught fire at port). 5/20 : Winds up to 30kts and waves to about 3m. Anchor jumped the roller and we had to retrieve which was dicey. The boat likes big wind. Got the fridge working. 5/21 : Completed the arrival to St George Grenada at 441.2nm over 69 hours (6.4 kts average). Bow thruster battery was hosed and later the regulator for it caught fire in harbor. So no thrusters for docking but was ok. Brent and Ben were giddy after making like 9+ kts for a while on night watch.

Sapphire Village, U.S. Virgin Islands to Saint George's, Grenada
South Grenada cruise out and back with Sarah, Livnat and Brent. The girls’ first sail on Aeoli (H54). Main got nicely jammed while unfurling it but finally freed up…

Lovely day sailing. Winds generally 10-20kts. Nice little anchorage in Ronde Island. Got a big rock stock in the anchor, but Brent dove down and fixed it.
