Re: St Martin to E Spain
I see you're enjoying the nasty waters of Simpson Bay. Are you going alone this time?
Have a safe trip.... we'll have a tow scheduled to bring you into Horta if you'd like.

Re: St Martin to E Spain
We could never get a space to sit there. We stayed a month and a half and went up every few days.....Every time we gave-up on trying to get a beer and went to some other place.

well if you will go there in the middle of checkbook sailors season,coupled with a crew mating frenzy,expect standing room only
in December,we had the whole place to ourselves,staff and owners were great,service was as you would expect from any local establishment.
unfortunately no sex crazed megayacht stewardesses dancing on the bar at that time of year,but enjoyable non the less
