Long Island
We motored to Thompson Bay on Long Island in the Bahamas. We are now beyond the Exumas I believe but have a few more Bahama Islands before we head south though the Windward Passage to Haiti's south coast.
We have a very shallow area to traverse next day out but due to a norther we are going to stay here a few days or maybe just 2? 30 knot winds again are forecast. Surely we will get some nice sailing in on the way to Haiti. Anyway I'm not sure I'll be back here to use WiFi at the resort here in Salt Pond, Long Island.. Only if we all come back. Depends on the weather..
Candace and Walter are varnishing some upper parts of the mast(s)? Not sure if it is just the main or both? She was high up in the bosun's chair as I rode off in the dinghy.
It's a nicely protected bay which is why we want to wait out the norther here. Protected from all but the SW.
Once we continue south from here there are no really good anchorages so hopefully the trade winds will stay more consistent. The last Bahamaian Island is Great Inagua Island. Then it's on south to Ile a' Vache, Haiti. Of course we will be anchoring 2 or 3 more times before leaving for the Windward Passage.
Here's a few photos including where the Asperida fish sign ended up.
