We sail as a live aboard part of the year, working and traveling. Currently sailing on a Balance 442 “Aeoli” and previously on a Hylas 54 of the same name. We also used to keep a boat in San Francisco Bay and sailed there frequently in our pre-cruising life.



Beautiful day. Little wind shadow along Grenada but no real motoring needed. Raised the screecher a little later than we should have so could have made better time but nice sail.

Tobago Cays, St Vincent and Grenadines to Saint George's, Grenada
Gorgeous night sail. Little light beside St Lucia and St Vincent but that was my sleep shift so all good :) Gorgeous vigorous sailing the rest of the time. Could good squalls.

Le Marin, Martinique to Port Elizabeth, St Vincent and Grenadines
Nice sail until we turned the corner east to Le Marin into the wind. Tacked a couple of times and then gave up and motored in.

Saint-Pierre to Le Marin, Martinique
Had the same strong wind conditions typical of this whole trip. Nice sailing.

Maison Blanche, Guadeloupe to Portsmouth, Dominica
Much better sail than expected. Good enough wind for a screecher run in the window shadow of the island. Got spicy on the souther part of Gwada to the Saintes.

Deshaies to Maison Blanche, Guadeloupe
Great vigorous sail. Not quite as wavy as expected but still pretty heavy.

English Harbour Town, Antigua and Barbuda to Deshaies, Guadeloupe
Nice little sail until turning the corner into the wind and motoring.

Bolands to English Harbour Town, Antigua and Barbuda
Motor up to Jolly Harbor to leave the boat while we return to the US for a bit. Rainy and not really any wind.
