Near the end of our stay at West End, Roatan we had several days of rain. Had we known that we were to get so much rain we would have saved ourselves the backbreaking work of hauling water, as described in the previous post. On the plus side we got one of the most beautiful rainbows ever. On the downside we got "Boat Fever" an extreme form of "Cabin Fever".
When the sun returned we went to shore to enjoy a lunch with fellow boaters. While we enjoyed lunch "Passat II" went "walkabout". The pin holding the shackle at the base of the mooring backed off and she headed for the reef. If not for the fast action of our fellow boaters in the anchorage we would have lost her. Our heartfelt thanks to these unsung heroes.
