I have been really bad at posting since we got to Allen's Cay.
The iguana hunt went well, we all had a great time and learned lots more and met some fantastic scientists...snake specialists, turtle specialists, bird specialists. We were invited to stop in Indiana at the university to visit Dr. John on our way home.
We left there and made it to Spanish Wells through a tremendous thunderstorm. We spent the night on a dock and had a real shower!! We also went out to anchor the next night and met up with Sea Ya again ! The next day we all went for lunch and lso met up with Luck of FOol...It was a great three hours.
We left and headed for the Abacos...long day crossing the NW Providence channel but Quentin caught a meter long Mahi-Mahi...good eats!!! So the time was worth it. we anchored at midnighte and finished cleaning the fish!
Headed to Great Guana Cay the next day to try to catch up with Windreka, and ran inton Salt Shaker!! Ben had a boat full of boy scouts, but his boys, Daniel and Pace had already flown bck to S.Carolina.
Met up with Johnny and Janess at Nipper's. We anchored over night hoping to meet their kids, but weather made us move on.
Windreka had moved over to Manjack Cay, where we met them that night and had coffee the next morning with Dane and Andy.
There is a disturbance in the force coming this weekend Mon-Sat and we need to get a cross the stream to the USA before them so we will try an overnighter. If we can manage it, it will take 225 hours to cross from Mangrove Cay to Ft. Pierce. at our current rate of speed....no freaking wind!!!
We need to get Quentin back to Canada to get his work complete, but if we have to we will change our dstination to Miami or Lake Worthto make th trip shorter, although it sounds like the US coast is doing a lot worse that we are!!
SO no more posts until we hit the state...about to loe the internet tower connection :)
HAppy trails and tt y'all later
