| The north coast of Jamaica is very dramatic, with high mountains in the distance |
| And the fishing is good, too. |
| Sturdy and comfortable, the rafts are amazing. |
| Erol Flynn Marina in Port Antonio was absolutely first rate, and amazingly inexpensive! We'd come back here anytime. |

| Legendary Montego Bay I'm afraid has lost its charm to developers, but the Yacht club still provides a warm welcome to visiting sailors |
| Anchoring was difficult, and cruise ships kept us alert as a steady stream came and went. |
