How To Clean A New Pressing Comb

April 19, GREAT SALE CAY

To follow the latest text, as planned, we left Saturday morning from Treasure Cay at 09:00 hours to arrive in Green Turtle Cay to 12:00 hours. The 15 minutes were filled motor for lack of wind. The famous Whale Cay Channel has done very well, no swell, even I myself do not notice anything because I did a little nap while the captain was responsible for navigation.

We had two choices of anchor or White or Black Sound Sound which lies closer to the large village of New Plymouth. White Sound was our choice due to better hold of the anchor, from what we had read and it's true because the anchor to bite well on the first try. It must be said that throughout the winter, we had no problem except once to anchor Hachet Bay on the island of Eleuthera, he took it back twice. In Black Sound, you will find among others a well equipped marina for boats out of water,''Lift'' must have at least 22 feet wide. Moreover, there is many Canadians who leave their boats for the summer season. You can leave either on land or at mooring.

We had a nice walk in the large village of Loyalist descendants, while eating an ice cream homemade coconut, yum yum .. .. There are several marinas, gift shops, coffee shops, 2 grocery stores, 2 churches and what surprised us is the''Loyalist Memorial Sculpture Garden,''a garden that contains 25 bronze busts placed on pedestals representing loyalists and slaves who played an important role in Bahamas. Pretty impressive and well presented.

We agreed with the crew of Rigalio to leave Sunday morning to get to Pensacola Cay to get closer to Great Sale Cay, the last island before crossing to the U.S. It was a hot day with no wind, a dead calm on the water more than a navigation Poppa ... We have 24 minutes to an engine starting at 9:30 pm at Green Turtle Cay to arrive at anchor at 14:00 hours. En route, we caught a fish, a jack, a ten inch. Arriving just long enough to note the navigation in the logbook and these are our two captains ready to go fishing. He had to take because fishing in the clear waters of the Bahamas complete. After an hour, they are back and 2 fish over to the estate of Richard and sharing but it is our supper of fish confirmed with that taken in the afternoon. Here is an uninhabited island with beautiful beaches, a depth of about 8 feet of clear water to anchor. We are in a wilderness environment, we like good times but we love the most vibrant places. That is what we find in the Abacos, there is something for everyone ...

Monday we weighed anchor for us to move Great Sale Cay, dernière île inhabitée avant notre traversée. Une bonne pluie nous a accompagnée une partie de la navigation avec des vents de 20 nds mais le soleil s’est pointé après le diner et les vents ont baissé à 5-8 nds. Nous avons fait 34 mn avec un départ à 09:30 heures pour arriver au mouillage à 15:30 heures. Il y avait déjà une quinzaine de bateaux qui étaient ancrés prêt pour le départ pour les U.S .A. Nous écoutons une dernière fois la météo et c’est un go pour demain en fin d’avant-midi pour être ancrés à Memory Rock en début de soirée.

La prochaine fois que je reviens vous jaser ça, nous will probably be in Florida soon ... ... In
