Rodney Bay in St Lucia

before anchoring in Rodney Bay, we cruised through the canal here and looked at all the sailboats which just completed the ARC, the Atlantic Rally for Cruisers. The rally begins off the NW coast of Africa and ends here in Rodney Bay. Each year, about 100-159 sailboats participate in this trip across the Atlantic, taking about 3 weeks give or take, depending on weather. Kent would love to try this trip. We'll see, I say!



We've anchored in the bay. It's beautiful here with very few boats and a fabulous view of the sunset right off our stern. The trade winds are constant here in the Caribbean and although we are protected in this bay, there is a lot more water "action" onboard. I happen to like this gentle movement, especially at night.
