St Vincent –Wallilabou
Met by Boat Boy Marcus who for EC$50 took our stern line ashore to a palm tree and helped us secure stern too. Fabulous arrangement for checking in, (among the ageing set of Pirates of the Caribbean), with Customs and Immigration. Just turned up about 4 p.m., had a beer at the bar and they told us when the Customs guy arrived. Back to have another beer and the bartender told us when the immigration guy arrived.
Went around the corner to have a superb dinner at Rock Side Café where Orlando rowed us ashore and Rosi hosted us to a superb home cooked three-course dinner. We were the only boat in Keaton and Orlando had a man with a torch watching our boat throughout the night. We slept with the hatches firmly locked.

Location Detail: St. Vincent Wallilabou
EVENT: Theft
HAND: 1
Stolen Items: $80 ECD
SECURED: N/A
DETAILS: In the afternoon the owners of a private yacht approached the anchorage and engaged a boat boy for tying up to a mooring, agreeing on a price of $20 ECD for this service. The owners had only a $100 ECD bill, and the boat boy agreed to return promptly with their change.
He did not return. Later, the crew went ashore and paid separately for the mooring, indicating to the business the name of the boat boy, but they proved unhelpful. The yacht departed the next day.

Location Detail: St. Vincent Wallilabou
EVENT: Theft
HAND: 1
Stolen Items: Dinghy
SECURED: Not Locked
DETAILS: At first light, a boat boy arrived with the yacht’s dinghy, the owners had not yet realized it was missing. The boat boy asked for a “security fee” for the safe return of the dinghy and a modest fee was paid. The owners had not locked the dinghy to the yacht but did not feel it had gone adrift. They now lock the dinghy overnight.
We had a ball! Used “the twins” Ron and Ronnie to help us moor to the Anchorage Hotel dock. Everything is a little rough but don’t let that stop you. We enjoyed the entire experience. Try and buy a little something from each of the water vendors (10-15 EC with each one goes a long way). Along with another boat, we stayed an extra night and did a tour to Dark Falls. Ron arranged it Ronnie came as a tour guide and our driver was Cecil Doyle. Great Experience!
