What this video covers

The final day of a charter catamaran trip around St. Martin ends at Grand Cas before a morning sail back to Marigot.Watch The crew anchored overnight in 25 knots and dragged, requiring a repositioning and more chain before conditions stabilized.0:41 Bobby spends the last afternoon at Rainbow Café in Grand Cas — a beach bar with DJ, loungers, and restaurant — which he rates as the best spot on the French side.1:43 The dinghy dock at Grand Cas requires locking up due to theft.1:34 Bobby's assessment of St. Martin's destinations: Grand Cas and Simpson Bay are worth visiting; Marigot and Philipsburg are cruise-ship ports not worth the stop; St. Barts is reachable in three to four hours but expensive; Anguilla charges $300 per day for moorings outside one designated anchorage.4:38 The charter base at Marigot uses med-mooring style docking, handled by the charter crew.6:46 Bobby announces the next destination is Thailand, where a new boat is nearly complete and will launch by month's end, with four to five months of sailing planned.9:25
