A 45-ft catamaran departs Virgin Gorda on day four of a BVI charter, bound for Anegada — roughly 15 miles in 10–15 knot winds and 3–4 ft seas.0:49 The boat, an Elba Fontaine Peugeot chartered through Sailogy.com, makes 7.5 knots under sail alone, with seas calmer than forecast.2:13 The channel into Anegada's anchorage requires careful attention to markers: the water is extremely shallow, and Bobby notes another boat sailing outside the marked channel, risking grounding.3:45 Anegada itself contrasts sharply with the rest of the BVI — a flat coral atoll with a high point of only 28 feet, surrounded by shallow water, where the other islands are volcanic and rise above 1,700 feet.4:58 Dinner reservations at Potter's must be made by lunchtime; the crew books fresh lobster and explores the island by rented gasoline-powered moke, driving on the left to Cow Wreck Beach — named for an 1800s cargo wreck that deposited cow bones on the reef.5:51 The evening ends with lobster dinner, dancing, and a limbo.11:25 A 360 camera was lost to water damage the previous day, and wind prevented drone use during the passage.2:29
