SHAKY PUDDING AT ANTIGUA CLASSICS

We have had 9 earthquakes in the last three days. I did not feel the first 8 but the last one was a doozy a 4.7 right under Antigua. The boat shook from side to side and there was a deep rumbling sound like a giant slow revving diesel engine. None of the volcanoes nearby are showing any signs of activity and that includes Montserrat which has been active since 1995.

Meanwhile the local varnish experts are laying the final coats in the run up to the Concours d’Elégance.


While others practice their sail handling.



and others dream of getting the perfect start.
