Sailing, sailing, Over the bounding main, For many a stormy wind shall blow 'Til Jack comes home again!

Welcome to the British Virgin Islands - truly the centre of the sailing world. With consistent winds, clear blue water, sunshine every day and islands close enough to navigate by sight, the BVI is a sailor’s paradise.

And sailing is what we did!

Casey, Ben's KPMG bossman, invited us on Island Rover - Casey's Wildcat 350 Catamaran!

This was the first time Island Rover has been on the ocean this year since its sails were fixed.

Ben, Casey & Mark

We were joined by Mark, who also works with Ben at KPMG.

Pulling out the Catamaran out of Nanny Cay Marina.

Full Sailin'

Casey, Mark & Ben between the sails


Is this what the guys were looking at? Head on collision!




Ben learning a trick or two...
We stopped at the Cave (in the background) for a bit of snorkeling

After the snorkeling, we sailed over to the Willy T,

and spotted a the mere image of swaggering pirateness a.k.a. a Pirates Boat Party

Bloody Pirates were shootin' water balloons at us!

Island Rover's dinghy - Rover I - lowered down for takeoff to the Willy T!

Let's just say that Rover I needed a little extra air before we jumped on it,

and we had a strict curfew at the Willy T if we wanted to make it back on Island Rover!

Ben took the time to brush up on some sailing skills,

while listening to some Bob Marley

As dusk began to set, we sailed back to Nanny Cay.

We parked Island Rover for the night.

This is probably also when Ben lost his sunglasses into the deep blue.

Sailing aside, we stayed on the boat an played a couple round of FIVE.

Cookies made good rum chasers.

Casey, perhaps slightly inebriated, made a bet with Ben.

Ben lost, and as punishment, Ben agreed to jump in the ocean

in hopes of finding his sunglasses.

No mission is impossible!
