Day 14

Author: Missy S
Location: St. Barths
We awoke at 0615 for oatmeal and to prepare for our passage. In preparation, we were unhappily surprised by a fowl smell coming from our refrigerator, which we found to be broken. The strong stomachs ventured down to clean it out and did a great job. The rest of us cleaned the decks for our passage from Antigua to St. Barths, our final destination before returning to the BVI's. However, before we were able to set sail, I managed to drop the bucket overboard three times, a new AQ record, and had to jump in to retrieve it, so much for dry clothes. Kevin set up a fishing line while we sailed and we managed to hook a barracuda, but it broke the line before we got it on board. After a wonderful day of sailing we are finally in sight of land and excited to anchor, even in the dark. We all are in need of showers now and can't wait to see what St. Barths posh atmosphere has to offer.
