Trinidad to Grenada

Leaving Trinidad. June 16th.
After 5 weeks at Powerboats Trinidad, I finely got the ropes onboard, heading for Grenada.
But I like to show you some pictures from a weekend trip to the north bach of Trinidad.
We stayed at a beach hotel to watch the Leatherback turtels lying eggs on the beach.
About 150 BIG turtels came up from the water, shuffeled them self about 100 feet up on the beach,
and start digging a 3 feet hole in the sand. Then they made about 100-150 eggs each. Covered up
the eggs with sand, and went back in the water. While they lay the eggs they are in a trance, so
thats why we are alowed to tuch them.
Jonny feeling the Leather back shell, which is like tick leather.

Pascal which I met in Trinidad sailed with me north.
His from Belgium and came with Peter from Portugal via Cape Verde to Brasil and then Trinidad.
He looks like ( and kind of is) a sea pirate.
