.'We departed Bequia this morning at 0530 with a clear sky and 15 knots out of the NE. As we rounded the point we soon had 20 knots and were close hauled making good time to St Vincent's. We were able to see St Vincent's by 0730 but it was still close to 20 miles away. We were averaging over 7 knots so this was hopefully be a bit quicker then the last time which took us 11 hours. It didn't seem very long before we were closing on St Vincent's which is a spectacular Island very much like Jurassic park. We had a nice sail along the coast and were able to see where they had hung up the pirates during the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean", pretty cool. Soon we had passed St Vincent's and were heading for St Lucia, where you can see the twin pitons from quite far off. Two hours later we pulled in to Marigot Bay at 1500hrs and dropped our anchor in 8' of water. Wow we made great time and had a great sail, Doolittles here we come. It did take a few tries to set the anchor its super rockey here on the north side and the south side is reserved for moorings. I dove on the anchor and it had a pretty good set wedged under some sand and a big flat rock. I can't believe we ended up staying here for four nights this is a hard place to leave. This is a boat watchers paradise, they never stop coming or going and every type of boat from pirate ships to super yachts and everything in between
