    I thoroughly enjoyed watching this. The video was beautifully put together and I am so proud to see my dear friend Junior Thomas of Unique Tobago Tours (highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️) as your guide. The rainforest is my ‘second’ home as my mom and grandparents lived there and it’s lovely to see you guys enjoyed every moment of the Tobago experience.

    Have fond memories of being anchored there 10+ years ago. We loved Tobago and spent a long time between Grenada, Tobago and Trini, before slowly heading west towards the canal.
    Btw, sorry to ask, but please pronounce it Toe- bay-go ! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

    I know you've said you have wanted to keep things "light" on Awen but I suspect when you get to the south Pacific phase of your travels you'll really wish you had your own dive compressor. Maybe something you could get something small/portable even if it only lives on Awen for a year or two? It also makes you popular with other cruisers ;)

    • @SailingAWEN
      @SailingAWEN  6 місяців тому +2

      We have a small compressor, a Nardi 👍🏻, to drive on the anchor and clean the hull. We might need to find a boat buddy with a real dive compressor 😁

      Must have been a wild ride but it was a good decision to head south for the leeward side of Trinidad based upon Beryl's path over Tobago.

      @rmkep it was actually really tame, the last storm sucked the wind so we have 10 knots downwind so had to motor because we stored all our downwind sails prepping for our haul out.
