Headed Back

Hi All,
Just a quick update to let you know we're starting our trek back to the US. Tomorrow we plan on leaving Palm Cay Marina and go to West Bay at the (imagine this!) west end of New Providence Island. If the weather cooperates, and the forecast is looking good, we're going to move each day. From West Bay we'll go to Little Whale Cay, then Great Harbour Cay, Lucaya on Grand Bahama, West End on Grand Bahama and then Fort Pierce, Florida. If the dam don't break and the creek don't rise we'll be in Florida next Wednesday.

To have that many days in a row of good weather would be something new so there's a decent chance we'll get delayed a bit along the way but as I said, the forecast is looking good.

It's bittersweet. We hate to leave this beautiful water but hurricane season will be here before you know it and this is not the place to be during that time. We're also ready to be back in the US. I just finished updating my trip log spreadsheet. It's been 285 days since we left Kemah, Texas. We've traveled approximately 2585 nautical miles since then. We've been in the Bahamas for 170 days so far. We're going to be just short of spending a full six months here. It has been a great time and it sure has been nice to completely skip winter.

That's all for now. Take care.

Brian
