Charlette Amalie, St. Thomas, USVI

We had a great sail to St. Thomas from Culebra with SE winds at 12-14 kts and 1-2 ' seas.

A tanker along the way to St. Thomas. That is Culebra in the background just in front of the tanker.

Some of Charlette Amalie as we entered the harbor.

The harbor from a bus as we returned from shopping. Liquor is duty free here and about half price.

This is a cruise ship destination and there are usually 2 to 3 coming in and out every day so the anchorage is a bit rolly at times.


Sunset in Charlette Amalie.

We met up with most of the boats that we had sailed with off and on along the way here in Charlette Amalie and promptly got together for boat drinks and story telling. It is good to visit again with the "Luperon Class of 2009" as we now call ourselves. The group includes Opel, Sasura, Loafers Glory, Te Oigo, LaLa, Sarabande, Markelle, Central Park, and of course Moondance.
Wishing everyone a great Holiday season.
