SAILING LIFE - CHAOS IN THE CARIBBEAN!! EP-136

This episode of Leading the Escapade shares the exhilarating yet challenging experience of a week-long sail from Barbados to Martinique, involving Carnival detours, unexpected mishaps, questionable decisions, and moments that question one's lifestyle choices. A testament to perseverance, resilience, and an undying love for the sea, this episode showcases how the highs are made worth it by the lows faced during this adventure.

Welcome back to Escapade after a week in Barbados partying it up and exploring the island. With Carnival in Marque on the horizon, we couldn’t resist taking a detour to St Lucia on our way to Martinique. As with all great adventures, our journey was far from smooth sailing.

From Barbados to St Lucia

A week in Barbados had us feeling pretty exhausted, but there was no slowing down. We decided to sail overnight to St Lucia, with plans to stay in Marigot Bay for a night and then head to Rodney Bay for their weekly Friday-night local street party before moving on to Marigot.

Autopilot Issues

Halfway through our journey, we encountered an issue with the autopilot. The auto-pilot’s not working! We managed to temporarily fix it and continued on our way.

Arriving in St Lucia

We arrived at Marigot Bay, ready for some R&R after a challenging sail. Upon arrival, we realized that the anchorage wasn’t as calm and peaceful as it first appeared.
