On September 15, two weeks after Hurricane Dorian, the 55’ Nordhavn trawler M/V Adventure arrived at Green Turtle Cay to assist with the island’s recovery.

Vessel owners Captain Bradford and Lorraine Carlton, along with a group of friends and volunteers, quickly established a food kitchen, which they called the Adventure Cafe.

For the past six weeks, with the help of local residents, the Adventure Cafe has served two meals a day, feeding people as they work hard to put their town, their homes and their lives back together.

Last week, Team M/V Adventure also helped repair GTC’s basketball court, which was damaged during the storm.

It may seem a small thing, but given how popular the basketball court is, it’s a big step toward returning a sense of normality to the cay, especially for the young people.

Thanks to Captain Brad, Lorraine and all of Team M/V Adventure for everything you’re doing for the folks of Green Turtle Cay!
