George Town, Exuma
Well, who would have thought we would be back in George Town. We left Port Lucaya in light winds, motoring along. David (he-buyer) put out a fishing rod, and within about 5 minutes, caught a lovely yellowfin tuna. We guess about 20 pounds. The freezer is full!
Around the north side of Eleuthra, we picked up some nice wind and started to sail. Beautiful sail. We reached the entrance to George Town earlier than expected, and had to wait for high tide to enter the unmarked shallow channel.
We had the anchor down by 1:30pm, the dinghy inflated by 2:30pm, and the whole lot of us off to the Chat'n'Chill for Goombay Smash and Kalik beer. Then, crash. Three days of limited sleep caught up with all of us.
We woke just before dinner, and Marian (she-buyer) made a wonderful barbequed pork tenderloin. None of us lasted too long after dinner.
We'll wait here for weather before carrying on.
