Big Major is a very nice anchorage, which I hope to visit again.  We only stayed one night, then headed north to Cambridge Cay.  The conditions were fantastic and we sailed with Genoa and main at about 7 knots through the water.  We could sail as far as the Rocky Dundas waypoint when we had to turn east into the wind toward Conch Cut.  The tide was going out against the wind, so the seas in the cut were a bit rough.  We did not go out the cut, but turned north into the Cambridge Cay anchor just before the cut entrance.  The channel is a bit tricky with reefs and rocks on both sides.  

We took a mooring in Cambridge Cay to support the Exuma Land and Sea Park.  There is plenty of room to anchor, but we wanted to help support this park for our tiny donation.
