…we could have made our destination yesterday in an hour and a half instead of seven and a half hours. We raised the anchor in George Town yesterday morning and sailed 44 miles to the S side of Little Exuma Island. As the crow flies, though, we were just eight miles from where we started.
Yesterday we had lovely conditions for sailing.

This morning we left Little Exuma Island at 4:30 am and motored/motor sailed to Raccoon Cay in the Ragged Islands. We had hoped to have enough wind to sail the 67 miles but the wind didn’t fill in until we arrived at our destination. The Ragged Islands are as far S as we go in the Bahamas and we plan to stay in the area for about a week.

Looks beautiful and so relaxing… a world away, it’s snowing here.
