Al shuttled George ashore to catch the ferry to Trellis Bay for his 12:00 flight to Puerto Rico, onwards to the Dominican Republican. Later we pulled up to the service dock for a water top up and were soon on a north bearing between the Little Camanoe and Great Camanoe careful to clear the rock shoal on on the north-west side of the passage. 280M would bring us to the north side of Tortola were we will find Cane Garden Bay, our destination for 2 nights.
We entered the harbour on 111M and sighted one set of the two described red/green cans. We picked a mooring close to the dinghy dock knowing that this mooring would see a changeover in our crew. Lisa Marie and Gwyn will be coming on later today and Eileen and Al will (unfortunately) be leaving us on Sunday before we set sail for Jost Van Dyke.

Lunch was on the books so we went to Quito’s Bar and while there reserved a table for the evening. I took a cab to the west end of the island to meet Lisa Marie and Gwyn at the customs gate while the others awaited there arrival. Shortly after sitting for dinner the band “The Edge” started up and sounded great. The Edge is Quito’s band that he usually plays with on Friday nights at his and his sisters bar, Quito’s. I became a fan of Quito’s after hearing him last year in the same place and had strategically suggested this stop on this night in order for a repeat performance. Needless to say, I was disappointed when I learned that he plays with his band, at this bar every other week and this week was one of the ’not’ weeks. The band, however, was great.
We retired back to the mothership for a nightcap before hitting the bunks.
