Hello from Marsh Harbor We talked with several people over here and they say this has been the worst winter they ever remember and since we have been here the weather has not improved. With that being said today is great, 80 and sunny but Sunday it goes back to rain in the forecast. We may of had our foul weather clothes one or two times last year and this year we have had to wear them all but two days. It still has been a great trip and we are having a great time, we have had some great sailing, we may not of been the warmest sailors but we have had great sailing. We left West End on Tuesday. We did buy some more lobsters before leaving. George’s boat, Celebration has a freezer which is great. We stocked up with chicken,ham steaks, and steak before leaving. We were able to make it to Great Sail Cay on Tuesday. We were hoping to do some exploring but arrived too late.After setting the anchor, we had steak and lobster for dinner. You know if I had been home I might of had a Healthy Choice dinner, life is good. Tuesday night we had winds of 30mph the anchor held and the crew slept great. We slept in the next morning and got under sail at about 10. Our next land fall was Powell Cay. We were able to go ashore and explore. We didn’t get back to the boat until after dark. For dinner we had Pecan Crusted Salmon, one of George’s creation. We had one or two bottles of wine as well. Life is Good. One thing that is kind of neat is, that we have been sailing on the little Bahama Banks since leaving West End. This body of water is big several hundred square miles and the depth of the water averages 10 to 15 feet. We are trying to sail all the time we can for two reasons. One it is a sail boat and two we have developed engine trouble. The engine will overheat after about 1 hour of running. That is the reason we are now at Marsh Harbor. Marsh Harbor is one largest of the town in the Abacos and they have several marine mechanics, in fact one is on the boat now as I am writing this. Depending on what is wrong with the motor will determine where we will go next. Being stuck in Marsh Harbor for a couple of days will be hard, but we will adjust, I am sure. If the trouble with the motor is minor we will try to go down to the Exumas after leaving Marsh Harbor. The Exumas are another chain of Bahamian Islands. From the crew of SV Celebration
