The Raggeds, Again

We left Thompson Bay, Long Island yesterday morning to begin our 100 mile sail to the Ragged Islands. We stayed in the Raggeds for a week in December and thought it might be nice to return. Earlier today we were questioning the wisdom of our decision. We sailed 45 miles yesterday and anchored at Water Cay in the Jumento Cays. It is alway rolly in the Jumentos and it was rolly last night. It wasn’t so bad that is kept us awake and we are grateful for that. We left Water Cay before sunrise this morning and followed an old track—to avoid hitting any coral heads—out of the anchorage. The wind was under 10 knots most of the day so we motor sailed most of the 55 miles to Hog Cay. There were just five boats here when we were here in December. We expected there would be many more here this time but there are just nine boats in our anchorage at Hog Cay and five more in an anchorage just north of here. We also passed about a dozen other boats scattered among other islands on our way here. 
We are tired and opted not to go to shore for happy hour today but plan to join the others on shore tomorrow afternoon. 


End of the day at Hog Cay, Ragged Islands.
