Crossing Northwest Providence Channel to Lucaya

Trip dates: 
Thursday, March 5, 2020
Trip length: 
1 day
Type of watercraft: 
Sail

Our goal was to reach Lucaya in Grand Bahama before the major frontal system arrived, so we left Great Harbor at 7:05 am and headed north across the Northwest Providence Channel to Grand Bahama Yacht Club.  The wind and waves increased all day, but we had to motorsail to keep up our speed.  We reached the marina by 3:30 pm after 59 nautical miles.  

We stayed here 4 days while the storms came through.
