Bahamas bound

We made the Gulf Stream crossing in flat calm conditions, then had two days of great sailing from West End to Mangrove Cay on day one then to Foxtown roadstead on day two.  Steady 10 knot winds from the south both days.  Day 3 & 4 brought stronger winds and rain.  We are now docked at Green Turtle Club Marina on Green Turtle Cay.

I'm a little rusty on blogging so I'll just attach a few photos this morning and do some more later today if this attempt is successful.

The photo above is of our Gulf Stream buddy boat, Xanadu.  She is a sister ship to Sea Breeze.  Note the flat calm seas. It made for a long 11 hour crossing under power but the crossing was uneventful.



The above two photos are of sunset and moon rise from our first night at anchor in West End.  The photos were taken within a few minutes of each other.  Sorry about the blurry moon but you get the idea.



These two photos are of the marina property at West End - pool and beach.
