JOURNAL

It is going to be a rough week and for safety reasons we decided to go to a mooring ball in Hope Town. Buddy needed the mooring ball and gave us the slip at a discount. We decided to hook up to the water and the electric so we could give the boat a rest. On Saturday, we went out into the ocean in the dinghy. While we were coming in, we saw a shark and we followed the shark around. While playing with the shark, we looked up and saw a water spout over Marsh Harbor.

If you want to hear what is going on in the Abacos, just go to:

abacomessageboard.com

At 0815 every morning, you will hear the announcements. They tell the weather. You will be able to hear the other boats talking to the net anchor. It is what we listen to every morning to let us know what the weather is and when we can cross different passages through out the Abacos. You can hear the activities that are going on. The high only got to 78 today and the low got clear down to 73.
