We had a lovely tranquil sail to Isla Bayoneta, Las Perlas, today on headsail alone. Negotiating our way around the rocks and shoals was interesting, but not as interesting as what developed late in the afternoon. With a tidal range of 10ft, we anchored in depths to accommodate the change and ensured our scope (aka the length of chain we put out) was sufficient. It was rather disconcerting then, a few hours later, to witness a rather large collection of rocks appearing as the tide dropped. Fortunately we have avoided them, but we're a little too close for confort, especially with stronger winds than what was initially forecasted. So, we've decide to change anchorages first thing in the morning, following which we'll give Paw Paw a good cleaning inside and out!
We did, however get to enjoy sundowners aboard Two Fish this evening who are the only other WARC yacht here - Peaceful!
