Bequia - Admiralty Bay

In Bequia from Feb 10 to 13, we enjoyed the beach, the colorful town, the little museum, had our outboard engine repaired for the 2nd time (it stalls underway), spliced a new bridle for our anchor, and refilled our fresh water tank thanks to this convenient boat that comes along your yacht - as opposed to you tying up at a dock.

The mobile service station

Sloooowly but surely filling up the water tanks.
Our dinghy captain

Kerry, descendant of the North American whalers, helps us sort out ongoing outboard issues.  His uncle is actually featured in the museum as the last full time traditional whaler.
  
Our bridle had almost completely chafed during our last passages, so Avi spliced a new one from scratch.
