Left this a.m. for Spanishtown, V.G. again. Need to have the alternator looked at. Albert came and told us that it needs to be replaced or repaired. Chosen to have it repaired. Will leave here tomorrow for Fat Hogs Bay, Tortola, and will take a cab in to Roadtown to Al's Marine to have it repaired. Will spend the time at Fat Hogs for whatever time it takes for repair.

Enjoying the delicious lobster |
Put up the head sail and motor sailed our way to Anegada. Once there, picked up a mooring pin belonging to the Anegada Reef Hotel. Decided to eat on board that evening and have our Anegada lobster the next evening. Next morning dinghied in to the Reef Hotel, made our reservations for dinner, lobster is now $52 US, found out there was a major fishing derby, Lowell Wheatley Annual Contest, former owner of the Anegada Reef Hotel and, the fishermen would be bringing in the fish at about 5 p.m. We dinghied over to the most beautiful beach, one of the top ten in the world, had a swim, then went to have a look at the fish the fishermen and women brought in. Some barracuda, mahi mahi, and mostly wahoo. Lobster dinner was plentiful. Next day we dinghied a bit further past the Anegada Beach cottages and beached the dinghy. Walked out to the point to the cottages that Peter remembered way back when. They were not in the greatest shape. The waves were pretty rough so I helped Peter into the dinghy and I walked back to the main part of the town. We then stopped by the fishing contest...more fish being brought in and had late lunch....fresh wahoo. Yum, very meaty firm fish. Supper on board, fresh salad.
