Scot here. Quick lay over and it is time to go. If we stay 3 days we have to stay 4 as the weather looks bad on the 11th. This marina is too expensive for that and we need to get some miles under the belt. It is becoming pretty hard to find anchorages with…

Scott here. Time to move! We are planning on leaving here and heading north a few miles to Staniel Cay. We have seen all there is to see at Black Point. There are literally less than 12 businesses here! The wind is going to move around Saturday night and come more from the south or…

Scott again! Sorry for all the posts so quickly together. Just getting caught up. As we approach our destination, we use Dotham Cut. Going from one body of water to another between islands is called a cut. This cut will get us to the Great Bahama Bank side of the island. The charts say it is easy to navigate and…

Scott and his crew changed plans to move due to poor cell and internet signals. They set their sights on Black Point Settlement; 11 miles further north than initially planned. Leaving at first light, they explained boat equipment: a bridle for stability and a bow roller to protect the boat’s bow from the anchor. The…

Scott here. What a day! We finally left George Town, although we are still at Great Exuma Island. We will be here two nights. Tomorrow we want to snorkel a blue hole about 1 mile from here. Then there is a small town we might stop at on the way back. I will let Rita…

As we say “see ya later” to the George Town, Great Exuma Island, Exumas Bahamas area, here’s a breakdown of what we’ve been up to the past month or so. We arrived, stayed at Emerald Bay, kids and grandkids visited, we moved the boat to a mooring ball off Stocking Island and then later moved…

Scott and his team continue their journey north, encountering some challenges with navigating narrow channels and finding suitable anchorage. Despite some initial difficulties, they successfully anchor their boat, albeit with some adjustments. The actual travel time and distance differed slightly from the planned schedule.

Scott here. Today is a travel day as we officially leave Great Exuma Island. It isn’t “Goodbye” but “See ya later!” Prime Cay is a new addition as we took out Lee Stocking Island. There were some “ruins”, an old research facility we wanted to explore, but it has been purchased and is being revamped…

Scott here again! So what are our plans? Where are we going? I used “tentative” in the heading, because we are really flying by the seat of our pants. This could change as we are heading to a planned destination, so take this with a grain of salt. a our plan will change so much that is has already changed…

Scott here. This one is a shot in the dark, like most of our plans from now until we get to Bimini – unless we cross back from Freeport. We are making this up, sort of, as we go! Today’s plan was yesterday’s plan, but after finishing our errands we decided to stay put. The…
