The sail from Carriacou to mainland Grenada was just beautiful...Lindsay and Karen were amazed how beautiful sailing can be here..and so were we! We had not had these mild conditions (East wind 15-17 knots) very often in the last year! We passed the Grenadian islands and the underwater volcano Kick'em Jenny without problem. This volcano is 1300 m high but its peak is about 180 under water...its last eruption dates back to 2001!


There was a lot of haziness as we approached Grenada but its mountains were beautiful. The town of Sauteurs first came into view...this town has been named "Jumpers" after the Carib Indians who jumped into the sea to escape their ennemies.
