Day 73 St Martin
We spent 3 good days on St Martin Island. Its split down the middle, half Dutch and half French. They get lots of ship tourists here, there were 3 ships there one day and the next the Royal Caribbeans largest ship (6000 passengers) arrived. We had dinner with a SA chap who has lived there for 15yrs. Always good to chat to locals. In these bigger ports there is always a 'Cruisers net' This interaction between the yachts happens on the VHF radio at 7h30. Its interesting, they start with security issues, then anouncements, then stuff to swop or give away and general. Rob asked where to get our SA gas bottles filled and someone told us straight away. Rob bought a 5 mile wifi antenae, so we can connect to free wifi from the boat. 18,03.9N 63,05.7W
