Staniel Cay

Hi everyone,
I ran out of data the other day and had to go to Batelco to buy more which I did this morning. I apologize for dropping off the map again.

We are currently anchored behind Thunderball Cave in winds of 25 to 35, with higher gusts. It is absolutely howling out there. We had been closer to town, but pulled anchor and moved to cut down the distance we would need to row. We have 2 anchors out off the bow at about 45 degrees from each other. The boat is riding well. Tidal currents were strong at the other spot, not so bad here. 

We had a great time at Warderick Wells, although the last night was rough as we got pummeled by a cold front. Great hiking, saw lots of hutias, the small, rabbit sized mammal found only in the Bahamas. Sailing has been great, although a bit much wind at rhe moment. High winds tomorrow will keep us in this area. Went out for lunch today and had some nice fried fish. Snorkeled in the cave, which was used in several big movies.

I will try to get in to the rythym of posting again.

Best to all, Charlie
