Current Location: Low Bay Anchorage, Barbuda
Miles Traveled: 63 Weather: Mostly sunny brief showers, breezy (5-10), high-70s Highlights: Dropped our mooring balls at sunrise (6:30) and motored ESE 63 miles to Barbuda. Light winds were on our nose and we experienced 5-6 foot swells as we were leaving St. Barths, but by noon the seas had flattened to 2-4 feet, wind shifted south enough where we could raise the genoa for a few hours, and the afternoon was fairly pleasant travel conditions. Averaged 6 knots overall, and reached the west shore of Barbuda just before 5PM, dropping anchor in about 16 feet of water just off the beach. Caught a couple of barracudas on the trip over (kept one, tossed the other back), and had that for dinner with rice and a salad. Beautiful sunset tonight also, but bugs came out with the dark, and drove us inside for an early bedtime.
