Bahamas Bound (MJ Sailing - EP 41)

We didn’t know how long we’d be stuck on the coast of Florida, but it turns out we were given a window to get to the Bahamas!

Getting to the Palm Beach Inlet took a full day of motoring from Stuart, full of the bascule bridges we would love to try and avoid if only we trusted the two inlets north of Palm Beach. And the weather window we had been rushing to get of course changed course on it.

A few extra days hanging around Palm Beach, and we were given the weather window we were looking for to get to the Bahamas. With nice 15 knot winds out of the south, we thought the crossing would be everything we’d planned for it to be, except the Gulf Stream had other plans in mind for us.

Cheers from the Bahamas!
