SABER TOOTH: Everyday is another beautiful day in the Bahamas..

We spend a night anchor in Black Point and before continuing down to Georgetown about 45 miles. We were motoring all the way, the light wind came from the nose. So many boats went down same direction like us and so many boats came up opposite direction and guess what ... most of them are Canadians.

Following out of the anchorage by about 1 hour are Amazing Grace and Ajaya..we overheard the conversation on 16, Ajaya who lost their dinghy when the rough weather a week ago received the news from another boat..they found the dinghy..oh boy..sounds like a small ocean, in a small world.

Black Point..anchor and swim or go to town to meet friendly people

Sunset, always stop you to do things..enjoy the sun goes down and to end that day you have to blow the conch horn ... still trying to get the admiral practiced on the sundown horn ...

Boaters ready to welcome the night .. picture looking east with the sunset colors on the high clouds .. couds sign of weather to come ... but they make beautiful scenic pictures ... hmmmm!

Sunrise..and here we are, welcome the new day, beautiful day in the neighbourhood

Can never decide which picture to put here ... so here is another sunrise in Black Point.

A good day to start a day, before 8:00 we were in our cruise to Georgetown, through Dotham Cut. The rock formation is typical in the Exumas, where the waves have erroded and undercut the cliffs. Particularily on the Exum sound side (east side of the island chain).

Some boaters were worried this was the begining of a water spout ...

The breaking surf at the entrance of Emerald Bay Marina, Sandles Resort. The swells were about 10 feet with a 3 foot wave over that ... so from time to time you find yourself looking at a 12-14 wave ... once that wave energy comes ashore in the shalower water it comes up into these breaking waves ... the ones the surfers love ... as long as they are on to a "soft shore" ...

We have sundowners aboard "Painkiller" with Scott and Beth ...

The Harbor offices and mariners lounge on the second floor overlooking the harbor ... can sit here in Airconditioned facilities and write BLOGs ... :-)

The Harbor entrance ... narrow and exposed to the typical easterly swells and blows that each time a system goes through causes some anxiety with boaters coming or leaving ...

On walkabout ... we rented a car with Georgia-E (Stew and Karen) for the day ... drove through the island and this is the monumnet to a local slave, Pompey who fought for the right of slavery
