Alas, I was not clever enough to catch both JP and Susan making their dive on the wreck Lesleen M in Anse Cochon, Saint Lucia; that is JP in the far right of the photo, with a couple of their fellow divers. We all three went on the expedition, since they could dive and I could snorkel. There were two dives and two snorkels, with lunch in between; we went with an outfit called Dive Helen out of Marigot Bay, where we are on a mooring ball for a few days. It was really a great day; it rained off and on, but that makes the changing light on the reef more interesting. We will be here until tomorrow, or at least that is the current plan, and then will make a long sail to the west coast of Saint Vincent.
We have not done many boat projects since arriving in Saint Lucia, but JP and Susan did take apart the carburetor for the dinghy engine (which was not working) and after cleaning it, put it back together AND got the engine working again. They used a YouTube video that described how to do it for the specific engine we have - how cool is that? We have chosen the new upholstery for the boat interior and are in the process of ordering it and arranging for it to be shipped to Trinidad; we seem to need something like 60 yards of fabric for the project.

Water visibility at Anse Cachon looks great! We're going to see if we have time to stop there en route down the island.
See you in Trini!
Anne and Chris
