A brief stop in Bermuda to re-provision, re-fuel and add some fresh crew members. We welcomed Pierre, Simon and Adam to our salty crew to make seven. We set sail from Bermuda with high hopes, fresh winds and choppy seas. Some needed a bit of time to get their sea legs. Funny thing about sailing, you pick a destination then sail in any other direction. That’s what we did for a few days then the winds faded and we did a whole lot of motoring. We weren’t making much progress but the fishing was good. Days went by without even seeing another boat. We were totally cut off from the world…well, except for Starlink. We still had wi-fi (except when the dish fell over) The crew dug right into Celestial Navigation and pretty soon everyone was talking about LHA, Declinations and a bunch of other words we had probably never spoken before. Finally, we passed by Anguilla in the night. The islands started passing by quickly and soon we would reach our destination. We were treated to a spectacular experience when a pod of dolphins swam with the boat for about 25 minutes. It was amazing! But, we had burned through most of our 600 litres of fuel, so we pulled into Guadaloupe to get enough diesel to make our destination. We sailed into Le Marin under sunny skies with a great sense of accomplishment. Great work everyone!
