Up at 6am in Trellis Bay to get an early start back to our origin harbor. Unmoored and headed 6 miles to Hodges Creek Marina. It was a quick hour trip back to the base on our final sail. Always sad to say our goodbyes after a great trip! Packed up for a late afternoon flight out of Saint Thomas. Gave away a good share of our leftover beer, liquor and unopened food. Drank the rest before catching our taxi at 1pm.
Ended up being an amazing, heart racing journey from Tortola to catch our 5pm flight in St Thomas!
