Rocks and birds, Canouan

The anchorages were very rolly in the Grenadines.  Even this spot in Canouan was uncomfortable.

This is a great place to watch the fish below

A booby was riding our bowsprit the morning of December 13 in Bequia. But Pete chased him off since boobies don't use the head. They just shit on the boat.

This fish is too small to keep

It was only this calm near shore.  Really.

Bill Raynor from the yacht Hale Kai took the pictures of La Boatique while he stood on the beach at Rodney Bay.  The wind was light close to shore as we rounded this mark.
