Thanks to Bobo we think we have an easier, more efficient way to get pictures onto our blog so right now we will try to get an update done with pictures. Here we go…….
At this time we are back to S. Side Harbor since the last front came through. Our plan is to move towards Hog Cay today after using the Internet (the tower is on the hill in front of us) and making a dump run.
The last time we were here we met Dave & Karen on sv Carisa. Now this double masted trimaran is one large boat. She still is a cylinder inside (a la Grey Hound) but very impressive. The boat is a Chris White Juniper design. This boat is 55' long!

We hadn't taken many pictures of Duncan Town the last time so we would like to show you some more of the settlement.

Percy Wilson and family are the only folks living down here on S. Side Harbor. We have heard a a restaurant/pub here owned by Percy but doesn't exist anymore. What Percy has is quite a collection of wrecked and almost wrecked boats.

This boat had 55 Haitians on board when it landed not far from here. |
