Nassau and the Abacos
Sailed across 30 miles of 15′ deep water of the Exumas Bank to Nassau. Picked up Capt. Lou Kizer for him to rejoin the Bella Gatta. After several days in Nassau, I am complete with that island for another 20 years.
The last leg of the adventure is in the Abaco Islands. If Nassau is like Myrtle Beach, the Abacos are like Sullivans Island, laid back and friendly. Stopped at Little Harbor, an artsy community, and had a drink at the famous Pete’s Pub. Moved up to Hope Town, my favorite harbor ever. The photos of this harbor are from the red and white striped lighthouse that stands guard over Elbow Cay. It is a difficult transition from the deep waters of the Caribbean to the very shallow banks of the Bahamas. My depth guage has become my new best friend.
