We spend 3 days soaking up the Nassau Vibe, provisioning, and buying pieces and parts for projects. Our time here is fast paced and reminds us of the familiar hustle and bustle of places we've been back at home.
With another North Atlantic system bearing down on us, forecasted to bring strong northeast and east winds for multiple days, we are in search of a more protected place to sit out the weather. Our friend Cally tips us off on a safe spot and so the next day we top up on fuel, and sail off for this new destination.
We beat our way upwind, making little progress over the many tacks we executed as we sailed around the west side of New Providence Island. We sharpen our skills with every maneuver and finally turn on the engine, making our way into safe harbor.
