We are at anchor tonight with our quarantine flag flying. Tomorrow we will go to the marina and check into the Bahamas. We have taken our first swim in Bahamian waters--77 degrees!
Silver Boots at anchor next to us
Plane landing at the airport. We have been told the radar guy does double duty he is also the customs and immigration agent.
Some of the homes on Cat Cay
Gun Cay Cut
Good thing we had confidence in Silver Boots. We thought he was going up on the banks. The problem, mon, is that there are no markers for channels. Lucky he has done this before.

Jim and Pam have made the crossing a few times and it was nice to follow along.
Dive! Dive! Here we are plowing through the waves during our Gulf Stream crossing.
We were not prepared for the dark blue color of the water in the gulf stream. Not to date myself but it reminded me of dark blue fountain pen ink.
We pulled anchor at 7:30 am in Biscayne Bay and headed to Cat Cay in the Bahamas. The seas were 2' to 4' with some 6'. The winds were southeast and made the passage doable. The waves subsided to 2' around noon. We crossed with Silver Boots.
