During the night, the anchor alarm went off 2 more times even though I extended its range. I got up and checked but there was no wind and we appeared to be in the same position. If we’re dragging now, it’s very slowly.
We listened to the weather and found out that there’s a window to leave now and its even better tomorrow. So . . . we’ll be leaving and instead of stopping by Mayaguez on the way, we’ll just keep on going as we’ve not gotten off the boat and flown our “Q” flag the whole time.
We hustled around and completed the projects that we needed to get done except that I want to pre-make some sandwiches and dig out some canned goods that can be microwaved. We had some straps that we wrapped around the forward bunk and the bicycles and then criss-crossed a couple of bungee cords across it to hold everything in place. Now if it shifts, it’ll be mattress and all.
Its amazing to think that it took us months to travel from the Turks & Caicos down to the Dominican Republic across to Puerto Rico and then around the Caribbean to Bonaire. Now in a week’s time, we’ll have gone from Bonaire to T&C.
