Cruising St Lucia - Day 6

Nevil Adkins

After the morning’s dramatic events we sailed up to Pigeon Island and anchored for some lunch. Luke & I went snorkelling over a not particularly interesting rocky reef (which we were to dive a few days later) before we made the final leg back to Rodney Bay. Our passports had been sent by taxi to the Sunsail office, another US$40, but at least we got them back safely. We complained extensively abut the poor state of Lung Wei, especially the non-functioning electrical system and ultimately did not end up paying for fuel used and got a refund on three days worth of the charter. Overall, I was disappointed in the service offered by Sunsail as the state of the yacht diminished the enjoyment of the charter considerably. The incident at Marigot Bay was also a bad experience, but one that I shall learn from. The good side of the charter was however, very good. Excellent sailing in beautiful locations and memorable anchorages
