Boating Around the Entire Island of St Thomas

So what a better day to try out the new boat last Sunday, calm winds and sunny! How about a trip around the entire island of St Thomas? We have never done that before so why not. Usually the North Side is too rough as the Atlantic Ocean pounds that side. Not on Sunday, it was a lake out there!

We started out of Compass Point Marina, which is right near Secret Harbor and headed out!

The whole trip took about 2.5 hours to complete going at 26 knts of course with stops. We travelled 40.4 miles. If you ever get the chance to do it, it was certainly a good time!
