BOAT LIFE in the BAHAMAS – SAILING, DIVING + Exploring the Central Abacos | Harbors Unknown Ep. 61

This week we’re sailing further south into the central stretch of the Abacos in the Bahamas, still in search of a SIM card for internet, cute Bahamian towns and beautiful reefs for admiring and hunting for fish. To avoid shallow shifting sands and shoaling in the Sea of Abaco we have to traverse the notorious Whale Cay Cut, known for swells and Abaco rage sea conditions, if the trip isn’t timed properly. We decide to go for it even though we have winds up to 20 knots from the northeast…conditions reported to cause the Abaco rage.

Thanks so much to Erik from https://www.notesfromtheroad.com/ for the illustrated Abacos map. Be sure to check out his super interesting travel site, especially the section on the West Indies https://www.notesfromtheroad.com/westindies/

If you’re new here, Harbors Unknown is the story of two dreamers, Kristin and Fabio Potenti, and our French Bulldog dog Yoda. We sold our home at the beginning of the pandemic (May 27th, 2020) and moved aboard our Seawind 1600 catamaran, Wanderlust, in September, 2020. We’re sailing her to Harbors Unknown, to explore the world’s vast cultures through food, a common thread amongst people everywhere. Connecting with people and places through the local cuisine, and showing how those dishes can be cooked on a boat with limited space and resources. We’re sharing our adventures as a sailing couple living on a boat and how it’s possible to live an alternative lifestyle that provides freedom and fulfillment. We have set off on our voyage sailing around the world, exploring the beautiful waters of South Florida, the Florida Keys, Bahamas, and the US East Coast.
