| 15 - 16 Dec: Several of us departed Bimini on 15 Dec. Our neighbors Joe (single - hander on S/V Pegasus) & Marilyn & Vic (S/V Whisper) departed before us. Due to north winds most of us went south to get access to the Great Bahama Bank (GBB) via either Turtle Rocks or Triangle Rocks - we took the later and were glad for it - more sea room along that route. We decided to go through the night while the others did what we'd done before - anchor for the night around NW light. We arrived off the coast of Nassau around 0500, slowed and entered around 0830 following a huge cruise liner & with the sun directly in our eyes. Joe arrived later that day and berthed in the slip next to us. |
| 16 - 20 Nassau Harbour Club Marina: The most recent time we'd been here (2008) the facility was being rehabbed. The most obvious and appreciated improvements are the laundry ($3/token/load) and the heads/showers. The proximity to the mall with Winn Dixie like store & Starbucks is also appreciated - as before. WiFi is not great. It was easier in Bimini! We made a bee-line for The Green Parrot to enjoy the best hamburger in paradise! ...and their margaritas aren't bad either! |

| 21 Dec: Crossed the Yellow bank en route Highbourne Cay Marina where we will RON after topping off our fuel and water supplies. We only had to dodge 5 - 6 coral heads despite the sun being in our eyes most of the transit. |
