Jack and Cheryl...a serious look
19 January 2015 | Off Wardwick Wells
Toby Hynes
Having enjoyed Two Mile Beach and the other bays around Highborn, Comocean heads off for Wardwick Wells. This is the national Sea Park for the Bahamas. It's a group of Islands and the habitat is well managed by the offices located in Warfwick Wells. This anchorage is dsescribed as a fishhook. The channel has about twenty mooring balls. Reservations are made a nine am on VHF 9. They are expecting us. Jack and Cheryl are navigating us carefully into the approach to the anchorage (photo).
The anchorage has significant current, so docking will be hard. Joanne puts us right on the ball. Jack and I both get a hook on the line, but cant get it aboard fast enough to slow us down. OOPS, there dgoes Jacks pole. OOPs, there goes Toby's gaff. Happily, along comes a dingy who gets us a line. Then another dingy with our boat hook. And another back with the Gaff. Aren't sailors wonderful!
