We sailed almost the entire way from Norman's Cay today to the Big Majors anchorage here off of Staniel Cay in west winds of 12-16 knots. The sailing has been awesome since we've left Marathon...no need to buy any diesel for a long time! Staniel is a cruiser's delight with a small settlement, beaches, snorkeling and a Baptist Church with great music! Walt and Rich snorkeled into Thunderbolt Grotto at low tide. We also took our dinghy around the whole island with Deb and Tom---in 17 knots of wind with a strong current. It was like a white wat
er rapids ride and we all got soaked and pounded. We also went to see the swimming pigs and their little ones. We'll be returning here for several days on the return trip.
Back on the trail again
