The island is officially packed with cruisers, tourists, and racers as we gear up for the 40th Annual Heineken Regatta. As exciting as this is, it also brings a good bit of chaos. One of SXM's greatest downfalls is the traffic. There's basically one shoddy road that circles the island. So when there's a traffic jam– at any given time of the day– you can expect large delays and lawless drivers. This alone makes owning a dinghy one of the greatest advantages of being a cruiser. We can quickly zip through the lagoon, cut out an hour of sitting in traffic along with the noisy drivers stuck in place.
Although February had some seriously raining and windy days, we're looking forward to a peaceful March with glassy waters to great us.
