This Hawksbill turtle was totally nonchalant about our swimming next to him. I even touched his back which Ed took a video of but which takes too much data to download for your viewing pleasure. We dove at a great site and wish we could do more here. But this morning we head back to French Harbour ahead of another cold front. We'll provision from there and then head on to either Jonesville (we really want to visit The Hole in the Wall bar which we recently learned was originally owned by the brother of a friend of ours in St. Croix) and then on to maybe Port Royal but eventually back to Guanaja. From there we'll fuel up, fill our water tanks since our water maker continues to work less efficiently than normal, get our two propane tanks filled and then when the forecast is promising, we'll clear out of customs from there and be on our way to Mexico. Unfortunately the forecast calls for an extended period of unsettled conditions, thus limiting the potential for passages north.
