Day 63 St Vincent

13,57.98N  61,01.62W We snorkeled at Tobago Cays, 
there is a huge variety of fish there and turtles. 
We took the rubber duck close to the reef, picked 
up the bouy and jumped off. The sea so warm its wonderful 
to swim in. On the way back to the yacht we were drenched 
by a thunder shower. The water there is light blue, very pretty.
We then moved on to Bequia Island and slept in
Chateaubelair Bay. A much poorer community. 
As we anchored an 14yr old called George came to warn 
us not to anchor here, its too dangerous as 'the men get 
drunk and may come to steal from your boat' So we moved 
to the suggested spot closer to the police station. Next to 
the only other yacht. We then bought Pineapples from George, 
a really bright kid. All went well although we did not get much 
sleep as it was Friday night and 3 party spots on the shore, 
were doing a good 'jump up'(local term for party)
We are in wonderful Marigot Bay, St Vincent Isl. Lots of yachts.
Had a walk around and met South Africans from 
yacht 'Fennesy',it was moored next to us in CT.
Really special here. Will post pictures soon.
