The bvi s by sami of lymington Well i know the dolphins arnt the bvi s but they do live there and we saw them

the boat a bentteau oceanis 343 a very nice boat very stable didnt point upwind to well and wasnt the fastest on the flotilla
But we did manage 4th place on regatta day beaten by a cat.a oceanis 473 and one other 343 who was very competitive and tried to ram us at the start line and shouted intimidating comments when we tried to overtake

Sorry about the picture of my a@rse but I did need to show my biggest c@ckup I got one of the lazy jacks caught around the halyard clips so up the mast for me

Wow fell in love with this and alas i would have to work forever to buy it so that ones out the window

The anchorages were stunning the holding was superb

Marina cay I even managed to get free wireless connection here for a couple of hours

Is the 343 really THAT much of tub, or is it an unflattering pic?

 

[Jobs_a_ good_ un]

After a 4 hour sail to anegada the 1st thing I said was well we made but its a bit of a bath tub so yes
But we did manage 8knts in a force 5/6

Is that mainsail from a smaller boat?

 

[Jobs_a_ good_ un]

No I dont think so Its got 1 reef in and its a funny angle
That maybe the reason it looks small

So happy to hear you were able to use your computer in such an idyllic setting! How would we ever manage without .... and anyway, who needs to get away from it all?

We saw those going out and thought wow, no problem I reckon once your out of the marina apparently when you come back in thay come out and meet you
Twas easy enough to pick up the mooring bouys though me and my 10 year managed no probs
Weve since rebooked the trip for xmas and ive never done that before so must have been good eh?
