Sail the Caribbean

Tradewinds re-awakening

We did this trip in 2000. Back then we had no clue (or very little) about sailing an ocean, booked a cheap boat which we had to fix ever 2 days, picked the wrong season (no wonder it was so cheap), lots of rain called tropical waves, which ment a huge rain shower every 2 hours. And us girls, we were seasick most of the trip lying down below deck. 

So this time we did it the „luxury way“. Tradewinds re-awakening we called it, a nice boat (well, that was the plan), a one-way trip from St Lucia to Grenada, the wind always in our backs, good pills against seasickness which we hardly used, and mid March, sunny, warm and no rain (well, that was the plan). We wanted to visit all the cool spots we saw in 2000, sort of checking our „memory list“, to see if it was still so very cool in the Caribbean. Yes, it was !
