Little Farmer's Cay

 Hi folks!

We have come in here to potentially ride out an approaching cold front. It's supposed to come thru early Saturday morning.

We had several lovely days at Black Point, a lovely little town. Laundry was a project we tackled, a project made easier due to Ida Patton's fabulous laundromat, which boasts the best view of any laundromat I have ever been in. And Ida herself is a delight. We also purchased some groceries and topped up our water. We were sorry to leave but the anchorage is wide open to the west and becomes untenable with a frontal passage. So we sailed out the anchor and sailed down to Oven Rock near Little Farmer's. Spent the afternoon spelunking, beachcombing, and weaving palm fronds. Both Mary and Malachi have become extremely proficient at that craft.

So, we are tucked in at the southeast corner of the Cay where we should have reasonable protection from weather although there is a good bit of surge from the inlet. So there is a considerable amount of roll, which doesn't bother me,

  2. Oh yeah, we are employing that anchoring technique. Works great. The other boats here are on one anchor and are all over the place.
