BVI Bareboat Sailing Trip Part 3

Our next dive was on the HMS Rhone....you can't come to BVI and not dive the famous shipwreck!
It's our deepest dive - getting down to about 80 feet - the 1867 shipwreck is surprisingly intact.


Beautiful large French angelfish.


The brass porthole you're always supposed to rub for good luck!


A little hard to see, but this was a neatly colored trumpet-fish - maybe about 2' long.


After the dive at the Rhone, we needed to dock at UBS Dive shop and get our air tanks re-filled.  Here, one of the dive shop owners - Kate - is entertaining the crew with her beautiful British accent and funny stories.  We've used their dive shop since 2005 - lovely folks.


After stopping at the dive shop, we made our way around Beef Island over to Marina Cay for a little "walkabout".

The always lovely view of Marina Cay (pronounced "key")


We stopped at the Pusser's Restaurant for some cold refreshment.


We took a walk around the grounds of Marina Cay - this is the view from the top of the hill.



We ended up at Trellis Bay for the night and DaLoose Mongoose restaurant for dinner.  A nice meal and an early night....
