Well… this is an anticlimax.

The first thing we see as we come around Grand Bahama Island are two 28 foot open cockpit fishing boats just finishing their run over from Florida. Obviously, not quite as rough and tumble as I had been lead to expect in these weather conditions.

Our next challenge will be figuring out what to do when we get to the Inlet many hours ahead of schedule. Do we pick an anchorage for the night? Or thread our way up the New River and it’s many narrows and bridges? Decisions, decisions…
