A crew aboard the catamaran Clam Shack sails 25 miles from St. Martin to the Dutch Caribbean island of Saba for a 24-hour excursion.1:31 Saba features steep volcanic terrain, limited anchorage, and deep water, necessitating the use of mooring balls which are prone to heavy swell.1:08 Upon arrival at Fort Bay, the crew clears customs and hikes the island’s steep, hand-built road system to the town of Windwardside.11:03 The island’s history includes a period in the 1800s known as the "Island of Women," when men were frequently away at sea.10:53 The crew also explores the historic Ladder, a steep stone staircase formerly used to transport goods, including grand pianos, from the shore to the interior.18:21 Diving conditions in January allow for snorkeling without full wetsuits, though the crew observes significant coral bleaching.19:20 The return passage to St. Martin involves gusty conditions with wind speeds increasing from 12 to 20 knots.23:41
