  • Finally in the Exuma Land and Sea Park
  • Much better foilers, thanks to a few days in Black Point harbor, premier foiling grounds

Work-from-boat for a family adventure on our Edel 35, Mirror Image, to celebrate graduations! Starting from Beaufort, SC in March, venturing to the Exumas in the Bahamas, and fleeing back up the coast in time to party with the tall ships in the Bay (hopefully). 

notable events and pictures to come and day totals to be updated as we go:

- April 19: crossed into the Bahamas! 60ish mile day from Key Biscane to Bimini. Caught a wahoo that escaped, a barricuda, and a sailfish

- May 28 - 30: return to the US! 60 hours from Nassau to Caoe Canaveral, with a pit stop in the West End for fuel. Caught one barricuda and one nibble from a nebulously large fish. Hooked a tuna who also escaped. Saw a pod of sperm whales, dolphins riding our bow, many cruise ships and thunder storms, and a manatee when transiting the Canaveral lock

Joined the crew I had met an an open house for my second drop in frostbite of the season. Totally cheated and managed two warm days in a winter that had very cold, rainy, and snowy Saturdays. Was the jib trimmer, and vaguely competent at it!

After official Wednesday night racing ends, they switch to "Rouge Racing", which just means no RC and a less official start/finish for pursuit racing in the inner harbor. Also sailing after dark.

Sunset today was 6:15 and that's about when we started our race, meaning we sailed into the sunsent, and once again under the beautiful recently full moon. Another windy night, and we were wimps about the spin on our second downwind leg, loosing us our place in the top of the pack. Then chips and cheese and crackers on the sail home!
