this was a big sailing day and a beat uphill from W to E, Diamond Cay to N Sound Virgin Gorda. was going to go far outside but decided there would be more to see, and maybe, just maybe, a little less windy if we stayed "behind" and between the islands on the way.
sailed up until we got to just before little camanoe channel (the smaller one to the east).  lots of traffic through the bigger side tho too...
motored thru that and around marina cay and all the way to the dogs. wanted to stop for a snorkel and maybe coupd have a t George dog but it was still choppy and we all decided we wanted to get alongside.  
entered the north channel and got over to Leverick Marina no prob.  Alongside was... tense, with the wind and had to back that thing into the slip right next to an "expensive" centre console w 4 outboard.  wee bumping but no problems.  single sail drive (sd40 I think) located just aft of the shoal keel, big-ish prop but both spade rudders are outboard and angled and no help at all in reverse. and the bow thruster has seen better days, not much help.
heat sailing day but a bit lumpy and tiring.

Diamond Cay Little JVD to Leverick Bay Marina, North Sound, Virgin Gorda. south of Guana and thru Little Camanoe Pass.

Crew: 4
