Seeking company sailing to Trinidad from Grenada this August

Hi fellow cruisers,

We are considering sticking to our plans to sail to Chaguaramas to benefit from Trinidad's great yachting services this August. We plan to be in Grenada by mid to late July and to sail directly to Chaguaramas from there.

We are aware of the attempted piracy attack that took place this spring and so would not contemplate sailing alone. We are looking for other boats planning to sail from Grenada at around the same time so that we can travel in convoy.
In line with safety recommendations we will be filing a float plan and completing part of the sail at night.
Any one else planning to do the same? X

Simon and Rachel
