Cayo Alcatraz N21 02.22 W 79 18.14

JP taking us to "his" spot

Alcatraz is Ti-bag’s favorite anchorage, but too shallow for keel boats.  JP met us at the entrance and with his guidance we gunkholed our way to anchor in just enough depth to touch only on low tide! We spend more than a week here. We found on this reef the most prolific fish life we have ever seen.

 JP and Jaco had an amazing experience when a Cuban fisher boat invited them to assist with pulling in the sardine net.  The next day the 4 of us a big sardine-BBQ-Rum-beach-party.

We were very very sad to see Ti-bag leave. We spend the last two days with Emanuel and Antoinette of S/V La Licorne.
