Passing Montserrats puffing volcano

At 7:30am we're following our gps breadcrumbs back out of Nonesuch Bay. Heading for Barbuda. We're outside the nasty reefs with two reefs in the main. And then only one. We're sailing with just the mainsail, tailwinds.
Out on the horizon the live volcanic island of Montserrat is distinct in the clear skies. It is sending up thick clouds of hot steam into the air. The last time it had a major eruption it destroyed much of the island, and devastated the population. But no pyrotechnics today.
From the upside-down ice cream cone summits of Montserrat we arrive at the pancake-flat island of Barbuda. Wind-blown, sandy outpost of Antigua. It has a private exclusive hotel-with-airplanestrip. And a tiny dirt-road village, Codrington. And is encircled by fine white sand beaches.
We anchor beside "Full Circle" at 14:30. The water is translucent turquoise, cool after a hot sun sail.
