It was only with extreme luck that we left St Maarten and St Barth’s just early enough this season to escape the wrath of what the islands expected to be a 30-40knot tropical storm, but turned into Hurricane Gonzalo just as it moved over St Barth’s this past week… Our hearts and deepest condolences go out to families and friends of those that lost their lives, and the 30+ boats lost or sunk in this tragic sudden shift of weather… we wish only the best, and a speedy recovery for all those who suffered losses in this storm.
The footage in the video was filmed in September 2014, about 2-3 weeks before Hurricane Gonzalo struck.. we had just left St Maarten very late in the season, and knew there was a high risk in being that far north at the time, but we headed for St Barth’s on an intermediate stopover to St Kitt’s on our way South to Grenada for the rest of the Hurricane season. Columbier Beach was absolutely spectacular, and of course being this late in the season we had it entirely to ourselves! We managed to get some nice drone footage from ‘Sophisticated Lady’ with our new “Mariner” Waterproof Drone, and you’ll see that in the video.

Captain Morgan Hid His Gold in This Cave | SSL781
Everyone on San Andrés will tell you Captain Henry Morgan hid his gold in a cave on the west side of the island. The cave is real. The gold has never been found — and the ship it was supposedly on broke apart on a reef in Panama in 1671. This week Sophisticated Lady is anchored in Seaflower, the sam...
We Couldn’t Slow Down — Squalls from San Blas to San Andrés | SSL780
