The Big Blow (Calico Skies Sailing, Ep. 52)
August 01, 2020 by Calico Skies Sailing | Language: EN Play Time: 00:16:34 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
In this episode, we travel to the Southern most island in the Ragged Island chain in search of protection from an impending storm. The Ragged’s are known for having few islands that offer wind protection from every angle but thankfully, we were able to make it all the way to the bottom of the chain before it arrived and still had time for a fantastic dive upon anchoring.
Not only did we see lots of sea life on our dive but our passage down was chock full of visits from sea creatures. Traveling through the Ragged Islands is like visiting an aquarium – There is so much to see and you don’t have to work hard to see it – You can see hundreds and hundreds of feet in the distance, all from the cockpit. We caught four Barracuda, were visited by a pod of dolphins, and spotted a shark traveling through the clear water along side us. Bill also took an unplanned dip when we ran over a fish pot and got it tangled in both the rudder and prop.
