Little Bay, Montserrat
Sunday, 02.25.2008, 21:30 clock
Today any overly nice trip from Nevis to Montserrat. With full sails and two engines, we have the 35 nm rather against the wind after all, brought in just over 6 hours behind us. Once there, we wanted to do shortly before 5 clock a little country walk. A man in uniform (presumably from the "Port Authority") kindly pointed us out that we einzuklarieren and had "over time" (Sunday supplement of probably 70 EC $) to pay. As an alternative, we had only to chug back to the sailboat back.
On the island of Montserrat has been active since 1995 and to date the volcanic Sufrière. He has destroyed the capital in the south of the island and the economic life completely. 2 / 3 of Bevökerung have left the island since then. The southern part is prohibited area and can not be accessed. There are also a port is not here. "Little Bay" is - as the name suggests - a small and not particularly sheltered bay in the north of Montserrat.
