Homeward Bound--March 17

On March 17th (St. Patrick's Day) we left George Town, Exumas and headed home.  The first leg of that trip was a day-long sail north in the deep waters of Exuma Sound.  We were happy to be sailing--no motoring necessary!

At the end of that day we sailed through Dotham Cut just north of Black Point, Exumas onto the Banks side of the Exuma Chain of Islands.


Anchoring up in the harbor at Black Point, we spied s/v Windward and were treated to a brief visit with Windward's captain and crew--our good friends Ian and Lynn Bashaw.  Then we crashed for the night--slept very soundly!  We hope to see Lynn and Ian when they come through Beaufort in a month or so.  We had plans to head out early the next morning without getting off the boat.  The weather was good and the wind was perfect for sailing home so we needed to press on.
