On Wednesday, the 25th, we traveled from Green Turtle to Great Sale. We anchored and had a quiet meal on board in a beautiful but isolated spot above the Grand Bahamas Island. The next day we headed for West End and Old Bahama Bay our stop before travel to the states. We stayed at Old Bahama Bay for two days enjoying a nice, beautiful winter in the tropics.
On Saturday the 28th at 0700 we tried to start our transit across to the states, but the seas were 3-4 foot and nasty. We turned around and came back to our slip at Old Bahama Bay. By noon the weather had become a bit quieter and we tried it again. Not nice but doable we continued our trip to the states across the Atlantic to Lake Worth. It was a 6-hour trip at 10 knots that included 3-4 foot seas rocking us a good bit, a nasty rain thunderstorm near the coast of Florida with zero visibility conditions at times, and then a stop by the US Coast Guard who ended up given us a safety inspection — we passed without violation. Safely now in Lake Worth, FL we had a great meal and a few drinks then went to bed. Up to rain and some thunder we got underway for Fort Pierce where we will stay for 4 days. We arrived early afternoon on March 1, 2026. The best description of our activities can be seen on Peggy Saylor’s facebook page that described the details of these days. It included pictures of bull sharks eating food among other activities.
