Across the Atlantic

On Friday morning we left Spanish Wells and ventured out into the North Atlantic.  We made a heading mostly North to the Abaco's and Little Harbour.  We ran for about 5.5 hours and covered nearly 60 miles.  I fished for the first our as the rollers were only about 3 feet.  As we progressed they were solid 4-5's with the occasional 6 footer, and in came the lines and as we increased speed to better match the tempo of the rollers,  this is big water with a depth of 15,000 ft plus.  Around 12;30 we passed through the cut and into the Sea of Abaco and anchored at Lynyard Cay for the night.  We took the dink out and did some exploring. Brigitte went snorkeling for giant sea biscuits.  Around 10:30 Saturday we  headed up to Tilloo Cay in a squall, about a 12 mile run.  The sun came out and it turned out to be a beautiful day!  At 6 PM we headed to Lubbers Quarters and Cracker P's for a full moon party.

On Sunday mid morning we cruised a whopping 5.5 miles up the Sea of Abaco to one of our favorite places, Hope Town. We are on a mooring ball in Hope Town harbour were we will stay on and off for a month.  More pictures to follow.
