Location: The Bight, Norman Island
This morning, we woke up on the mega mega raft to a prank. The mega raft was with six other boats, all on the dive side. There was Gatorade powder and syrup all over our cockpit. Along with that, it seems that people on our boat pranked the other boats as well. Liam was able to steal the Good Times chicken the day before and put it on Pure Joy’s mast. Marin woke up to a smiley face in Sharpie on her arm. We then set sail to go to the Rhone anchor dive site. But before today, nobody has actually found the Rhone anchor. We only had knowledge of the vicinity it could be in. Gabrielle and Rudy went with Gene and Kaleigh to a dive site called “Fearless.”
Gabrielle was super happy to come back with the news that they saw a shark. The rest of the crew stayed at the boat to take a dive at the Rhone anchor site. Liam put his navigation skills to use and led the dive. Our max depth was 60 feet, but just as we were mid-dive… Madi let Liam know she was at 1300 psi. We had a change of plans, but it was all for the better. We were able to spot the Rhone anchor!! Robbie took his big camera and took some shots for proof. It was a huge anchor. As we made it back, Lucy, Elise, and Madison resurfaced. Liam, Grace, Robbie, and Marin stayed behind to do a moon dive at the mooring line. We took off our fins and did some flips. Grace and Marin did an airplane on the sandy ground. We then all met back on the boat. We then set out for Road Town after reuniting. We made it there, and all sat down at a restaurant for a nice lunch. Robbie and Liam ate enough for four people. Elise found a coffee shop, and we all agreed that it was the best coffee yet. Alex and Rudy explored the market and bought some drinks and snacks for tonight. We all looked for energy drinks and candy. As for tonight, we are writing letters to everyone on the boat. After Road Town, we took a trip to a snorkeling spot. Which had some really cool rocks and caves that you could go into. We all described them as moon pools and that we were mermaids. That was definitely my favorite part of the day. We also saw a turtle, and two boys on another boat were able to bring one up to the surface to tag it. But before they could, they let go and lost it. We are now in the bite and just had a yummy dinner that Alex and Grace made us. Alex and Robbie took some dingy rides for Zoomies. And Madi, Liam, and Rudy went to return to good times dingy. We are now cleaning up and looking forward to writing notes to everyone on the boat. As the days are closing and the trip is ending, we are soaking up every minute we can with each other. We are excited about the supposed hectic day tomorrow brings.
