Day 170, Monday December 9th
Today is moving day.
We need to time our departure around high tide so we don’t ground in the
channel. We have a couple hours before
departure so Dawson goes for a run, while Julie hits the market and a shop she
had seen a book in that she wanted to buy.
We meet up for a coffee so we can get some internet to finalize Ross’s
arrival to the Abacos in a week. By
coincidence we meet up with our friends at the coffee shop. It is such a small world we are revolving
in. 3 of the 4 boats are leaving
today. All of us are going to different
spots, but will cross paths again over the next couple of weeks. We could not decide initially where to go,
but since the wind is from the south, we headed north. Treasure Cay is one of the spots we had not
gone to yet, so became our destination.
Our plans are pretty flexible and have to be due to weather and tides
etc.
The sail was beautiful.
Full sun, 24 degrees out, with about a 13 knot wind behind us. We travelled at about 5 knots and made our
destination in little over 3 hours. The
tide was going out and still had about 2 more feet to drop luckily as it is
only about 6 foot clearance to get in the channel.
We spent a quiet evening at anchor. We will explore the shore tomorrow.
Cheers
Julie and Dawson
