Tom and Sandy are the only Spring 2000 crewmembers who actually went
to sea with us. As you can see they signed on in Antigua and
signed off in St. Croix. In the process of getting from point A to
point B we spent some time in St. Barts and St. Martin. |
We left English Harbor, Antigua at 0300 one morning and
motored to St. Barths arriving late that afternoon. After a few
days in St. Barths (during which time Sandy swears she saw George
Hamilton riding a moped) we took a day to sail to St. Martin. We
spent a day on the Dutch side then a day on the French side then sailed
overnight to St. Croix. |
In St. Croix we met up with Tom and Sandy's friend Laura
Ballard who took us all under her wing for a few days. Laura gave us
guided tours of the island, took us out on her boat to Buck Island for a
day of "limin" and generally was a fantastic hostess.
Seeing the sights with a local is far far superior to wandering randomly
like we so often do. |
