Hi everyone,
Yesterday we had a quick 90 minute sail from Tobago Cays to Chatham Bay on the W side of Union Island at the southern end of the Grenadines. We had a nice ENE breeze of 12G18 knots. Twas nice to be gybing downwind again!
Here are our track and graphs...

The fun part of the passage was coming out of the Cays via Penguin Channel and the Southern Approach. There was plenty of water but we made our exit late morning to better see the shallows.

| Rounding Rapid Point into Chatham Bay |
Why did we come to Chatham Bay? I was born in its namesake! Just had to happen.
There are about 18 boats here, all with plenty of swinging room Our anchor's totally dug in with only the top of the roll-bar visible. The Bay is well known for being gusty and indeed it is.
Soon after arrival guys from the three main establishments ashore visited. They are Sunset Cove, Sea Beach Eat and Tenuta Chatham Bay Resort. We plan to sample them all. The resort has the only dinghy dock so we'll probably start there.
Trust all's well where you are!
