An account of my sailing the Caraïbes Françes & Netherlands Antilles to facilitate certifications in Coastal Cruising and Coastal Navigation:

● Saint Martin / Sint Maarten

● St. Bart's
● Anguilla

With Puget Sound Sailing Institute on our 47' Catana

February 21 - March 1, 2011

March 1, 2011 Shift colors, the ship is in port.

I woke a bit earlier than Mike and Gabe, hitting up the breakfast buffet offered by our hotel around 8am.  Everything was French, so while the attitudes can be sour the cuisine is always sweet!  I enjoyed a few chocolate croissant, cappuccino, coffee, yogurts, and sausages -- yummm!  After breakfast we loaded up Mike's cooler with Coronas and ice and went poolside.  We hung out there until about 1pm, then returned to our room and prepared to head home.  Our flight home departed SXM at 4:30pm, arriving in ATL at 8pm. After clearing customs we left ATL at 9:50pm and arrived back in SEA just after midnight. The flights were smooth and couldn't have gone better. About 12-hours of total travel. It's good to be back, and I look forward to returning. Made here were many great memories I will forever treasure.
