We’re headed North and it’s day two of our passage from Flamingo Cay at the top of the Ragged Island chain to the Berry Islands, located at the northern end of the Bahamas. It’s mid June and this is a hot, light air trip. Along the way we encounter a U.S. Navy warship and are perplexed by a strange beeping sound as they maneuver around us for a couple hours. We drop the hook in Slaughter harbor, a bizarre anchorage off a private island owned by the cruise ship lines filled with empty amusement park rides.
Our Honda 2000 generator (which we use to run our watermaker) finally gave up the ghost so we raft up to our buddies on S/V Delos to take on some water for the upcoming long passage to the States. Together we enjoy a final swim in the crystal clear Bahamian waters and barbecue a last meal before we all set sail on our upcoming 700 nautical mile sail.
Stay tuned for the next episode, there may be a crew change for the upcoming passage 😉
