Good Bye George Town

We spent a little over two months in George Town. We grew close to our neighbors and will miss them all dearly. Before we left, we were treated to a fantastically delicious vegan based meal by Dean. It was no doubt one of the best meals we have had so far! I don’t believe I ate that much food the entire time we were there. It was an awesome evening of food, fun and fellowship with all.

We also could not leave Hole 2 anchorage without a little excitement. To give a lay of the anchorage, John and Tracey were in front of us, and there was a Fountaine Pajot 42ft catamaran in front of them. The FP catamaran broke loose from its mooring and was traveling into the back of the mooring field. Winds were gusting a minimum of 15 knots and it was drizzling rain. Tracey saw it as it began to make its way and alerted the anchorage with her blow horn. All of our neighbors sprang into action getting into their dinghies to help. Bubba and John were able to get on the FP and get it cranked. It did come in contact with the trawler next to us but there was no serious damage.

Finding the right weather window to leave Hole 2 was a challenging one. We thought we were going to leave on a Tuesday however Mother Nature advised us that she would not let us leave until Friday. Wind, Wind, and more Wind was keeping us as well as the tide tables. We needed a high tide to get out of Hole 2 as there is a narrow cut, we had to go through to get to the main channel. No problem, that gave us time for one last going away party with our hole 2 family.
