What this video covers

The crew of Supernova anchors in Great Harbour on Jost van Dyck in the British Virgin Islands, navigating a mooring field with depths suitable for anchoring in the outer, deeper sections.4:27 They utilize an Ultra anchor and chrome-ox chain to secure the vessel over a rocky and pebbly bottom, noting that the wind funnels unpredictably through the bay.4:16 After anchoring, the crew hikes to a hilltop cell tower for views before taking the dinghy to White Bay.13:53 They visit the Soggy Dollar bar, noting the lack of a dinghy dock requires beaching the dinghy through small surf to reach the shore.22:50 Later, the crew performs a reconnaissance sail-by of Great Tobago and Little Tobago to evaluate potential mooring and anchoring sites within the National Park.30:49 They determine the single available mooring ball at Great Tobago is too close to shore for their vessel given the prevailing wind direction and decide to return later via dinghy for snorkeling and diving.32:23
