Realtime Update: Dodging Bret π
Added 2023-06-23 01:24:22 +0000 UTCHey guys!
Sorry for the re-upload but the internet keeps cutting here where we are hiding from the storm.
We arrived safely in the southwest of Grenada after our initial scare that Bret is coming directly at us. Now we are securely tied to a trusty mooring. Usually, we do not trust moorings too much but this one is well-maintained and oversized for our boat. (Well, also we have no other choice).
It is a great option for us since we will be expecting the wind to first come from the northwest for a short period of time and then spin us around 360Β° as the storm passes. At anchor, this can be challenging with other boats around and such a complete spin can also easily dislodge anchors, leaving boats dragging in high winds.
We are absolutely relieved to have found this place and are ready to weather out the storm here, near St. George.
Lots of love and stay safe β Enrique and Sarah β΅π§‘
