Antigua and Barbuda 26 February and into March

We weren't even planning to go to Antigua, however after the water maker drama we knew it would be the place to have it fixed. We sailed to the North of Guadeloupe and had a fast sail up to Falmouth Bay with all the rags up! Just made it after sunset.

This is the Maltese Falcon in Falmouth Harbour

Falmouth harbour hosts many of the super yachts, this is also big regatta central, with lots of parties etc We were lucky to arrive before all of this and were able to have our watermaker bracket repaired in 2 days, by Steve. We even had our roller furler and stack pack restitched at the same time.

While sitting at the waterfront using the wifi we bumped into an old friend and sailing instructor, Phil Martinson. He now looks after a big yacht and does charters for the owner. What a small world!

Phil gave us all sorts of great advice, like how to catch a snapper. He also advised us to check out a 'must see' Green Island and Galley Island. We weren't disappointed as the photos will show.
