We have mosquitoes! lots and lots of nasty, biting, blood sucking mosquitoes. We spray the boat, close it up and leave for a walk on the beach...for the next week we repeat this boat treatment and finally eradicate the nasty buggers.

Turks and Caicos Here We Come!
More problems raising the anchor with the broken anchor mate. There's no way to fix it until we get into a dock, remove the anchor, climb up under the pulpit and repair the thing. So the swearing, yelling, kicking and yanking continues. Ah well, such is a sailor's life. We see a catamaran in the …

We had reserved a mooring ball, but upon arrival found that we'd been poached. someone was on our ball and the marina could not raise them.
