Attempt to sail to Saba… changed course to the other Saba

Phoebe Whitbeck

Definitely not the best weather for it, but we gave it a shot! First the starboard lazy jack snapped, then the port engine stopped. Two strikes and I wasn’t about to have a third. Tacked and sailed north to Virgin Gorda. Got the generator charging the batteries and the port engine started right up after we sat on anchor a couple hours. Change of plans, but it all worked out for the better. Now enjoying BVI for a few days. I’ll get to the real Saba one day!
