I could not stand it anymore. We pulled up stakes yesterday and left the marina at 2:20 p.m. The wind had died down enough for us to make our way back to an anchorage we went to before taking up residence for 5 days in Spanish Wells. It was good to be back cruising on the water and to drop the hook again in Royal Island Harbor. Then this morning we had the alarm set for 6 a.m. so that we could head down through Current Cut that separates Current Island from Eleuthera Island. However, before we got to Current Cut, M/V Broulee and M/V Cocoon Too joined us after they had departed from the marina this morning in Spanish Wells. M/V Cocoon Too is heading to the Exumas while M/V Broulee and Big Run head over to Hatchet Bay Harbour. We have made plans to cruise with Rick and Deb (M/V Broulee) for a while, after all they have a dog. So the anchor has been dropped at Hatchet Bay Harbour and Bob & Sharon are once again happy sailors.
