Just a quick update. We have been traveling....we left Vero Beach on Monday morning, stopped just north of Titusville, then at Palm Coast, and pulled into this area last night about 7:30PM. We had tried to stop at two anchorages just south of here, but the low tide, shallow areas, and our 5-ft draft [...]

On Saturday, March 10, with a further break in the winds, we left George Town to go as far north as we felt we could make it. Winds were northeast, 15-17, gusts 20. Good sailing!

So here we are, still in Georgetown, Exumas, Bahamas. Don’t think we are just sitting here on our anchor (you thought I was going to use another phrase). This time, we are lifting anchor and replanting it, unlike 2009. I think we are on our eighth anchor spot. They reported today that there are [...]
