Spent the night in Nassau
09 February 2013 | Nassau, Bahamas
Donna and Bill
We finally got to spend the day sailing! We left Soldier Cay and headed for Nassau. The weather report looked like we should let Bill's brother Guy get off the boat before he got stuck with us just sitting and doing nothing for four days. We had read and heard all kinds of bad things about Nassau. What we ended up doing, after a nice day of half sailing and half motor sailing, was to stop at a fuel dock to top off our tank and letting Guy out there. Our intention was to leave Nassau harbor and anchor outside it but we ended up anchoring on the east side of the harbor. The only problem was when all the boats for the cruise ship excursions go by and make a big wake, but they stopped over night. You need to call the Nassau harbormaster to request permission to enter the harbor. Bill did and permission was granted to pass through as planned. Once we anchored he called back and revised our plan to spend the night in Nassau. During the night we had our first taste of Bahamian rain. It was a bit strong, but not too long. Luckily the sun is shining again this morning. Today we are leaving for the Exumas. We will sail to Highborne Cay and probably spend the next few days there waiting to the nasty weather to blow through. When we say "nasty weather" we don't mean hurricane winds, freezing temperatures, and 2-3 feet of snow like some of you are experiencing now. We mean strong winds with the temperature in the 80's. We'll just have to anchor, relax, and maybe spend some time snorkeling.
