Nassau

We arrived in Nassau late Thursday afternoon March 18th, tired and a bit beat up from the rough sail from the Berry Islands. Nassau is a very busy port and a great place to stock up on supplies, including three new batteries for Kinja. 
The main working dock... 

We got our new batteries and installed them.  We also picked up groceries and other supplies.  We have discovered that sailing is not a vacation...it is a lifestyle.  A very nice lifestyle!

This one is for Jim, Marla and Ray...and of course David :)

Another weather front is moving through so we decided to lay low and chart our next passage to Highborne Cay in the Exumas.  It looks like an easy jump over except for a a few miles over the Yellow Banks (an area of coral heads that are verry shallow and must be visually navigated around).  It is best to cross on a sunny day so you can read the water --- brown=reef, yellow or white=shallow, black=grass, light blue= 10/12 feet, dark blue= deep water.

Tomorrow (tuesday). Looks like a good day to head out to Highborne Cay,  40 miles or so.
