Ep 175 The Last of the Unspoiled Caribbean Islands
We complete the final portion of our 200nm offshore passage from St Croix to Iles des Saintes, Guadeloupe, and find things exactly as we left them last year. Paradise on earth, honestly.
Iles des Saintes is a collection of small islands south of the main butterfly island of Guadeloupe, and the location never fails to leave you searching for words. It’s French in a way that other French locations fail to live up to. From the food to the wonderful French population, it continually exceeds everything you wished for.
Anyway, we have a great cross-section of footage, covering the offshore passage-making, arrival at the anchorage, drone footage of Fort Napoleon and aerial views of the harbor, and wandering the picturesque town.

Sailing Talisman
We're cruising couple Kevin and Wendy, and we're sailing the world in our completely upgraded Oyster 485. We packed up everything, rented the houses, and headed for Troon, Scotland where the boat was located. We closed in late 2017 and following a major electronics refit (the first of several) headed south to the Mediterranean. One season morphed into a second, then a third. And then the Caribbean beckoned. We participated in the 2019 ARC, and have been cruising there since. The adventure continues ...
