This episode – a roller coaster ride. So many brave people telling their stories, sharing footage, and all while receiving no outside help for themselves.

The mangroves in Carriacou were supposed to be safe. A hurricane hole where those who couldn’t escape the storm by sailing further south, would be able to tie up their boats and sit out the worst of the hurricane. It didn’t work.

In the past two weeks cruisers here helping each other recover boats. Most boats badly damaged, others have sunk to the bottom of this shallow lagoon. Nearly all the boats looted.

Operation Cruisers Aid is a charity that started out helping people on land. They have provided much needed emergency aid. However, they have agreed that since the bigger NGOs have arrived, OCA could provide any future funds they receive to help cruisers. They have already provided a crash pump and flotation aids to help get boats out before they are lost. They are now coordinating the relief effort for cruisers here. Any proceeds from this video will be going directly to the cruisers who need our help.

A Caribbean island belonging to Grenada known for coral reefs and clear shallow waters.
