1993 - Portugal to West Indies

We started in Portugal and went through the Straits of Gibraltar into the Mediterranean. We took our time going through Southern Spain and the Balearics. A long sail took us across to Malta and then Tunisia where we turned around and went back to Gibraltar to prepare for crossing the Atlantic. Our trip from the Canaries across to the West Indies took 20 days and we arrived in Grenada just after Christmas. Warm water and palm trees at last.
