Current Location: Jolly Harbour Anchorage, Antigua
Miles Traveled: 16 Weather: Mostly sunny, occasional showers, breezy (10-15), low-80s Highlights: Decided since we had pulled the watermaker out last night for XYZZY, might as well fill our own tanks also, so got that done first thing this morning. Raised anchor around 11AM and motor-sailed around the north side and down the coast to Jolly Harbor, arriving around 1:30. Tried to start the port engine as we were dropping the sails, but it wouldn't turn over (sounded like a dying battery), so we limped into the anchorage with one engine. Fortunately, the battery had enough juice to run the anchor windlass, so we were able to drop anchor and get squared away. Dennis came over with his jumper cables to confirm our theory (definitely a dead battery), so guess we'll take care of that first thing in the morning. Took the dinghy in for lunch, drop off the garbage, and then stock up on provisions at the Epicural grocery store. Light dinner tonight, then reading and early bedtime.
