The Sout' Side

After leaving Georgetown we traveled through Hog Cay Cut to the sout' side of the Exumas.  On this stretch we reached our most southern point - 23°22.925'N 75°31.472'W

Time to turn north :(

The water is fairly shallow so many cruising boats can't make this trip.  We have retractable centerboards as opposed to a keel so this route was open to us, and apparently no one else, as we didn't see another soul for 48 hours (unless you count dolphins).We had an amazing two days of sailing in 12 knots of breeze aft of the beam in beautifully clear water only 7-10' deep.

Look at the colour of that water.  I want to paint my whole house in it to hide from the doom and gloom next winter.

Binary looking beautiful as usual

For the kids, deserted islands with no one around only mean one thing - campfire!

Alas the solitude ended so quickly as we headed north and back into the heart of the Exuma cruising grounds.  Next up, Cambridge Cay.
