After leaving the tiny island of Saba the Graileys crew had dinner on the upper deck. This 2013 Favia Cerro Sur paired with Dover Sole was the start of a great meal…
This 2013 Cerro Sur was a big hit at the table with its signature toasty oak flavor and generous fruit.
After dinner the crew gathered for drinks and watched the sun go down as we left yet another stunning Island.
The next morning we woke up to brilliant sunshine, a day of fun at the beach on the island of Nevis was followed by afternoon drinks and swimming off the boat on the aft deck.
The sun went down and this beauty sailed past…
Dinner this night had all the Graileys crew in the main dining room. It was a battle between Ivan and I once again, a magnum of 2002 Chateau Forts de Latour versus a magnum of Two Worlds Shiraz/Cabernet from Bob Egelhoff. This, again, was a close call but I have to say the Two Worlds showed a lot more fruit than the brooding Bordeaux, nearly a split decision once again. Bill spiced the night up with a Jeroboam of Taittinger Brut Champagne that had us all rocking and heading up to the Casino and Piano bar to finish another great night off.
Tomorrow we hit Tortola and Norman Island…
