Black Point

Kerm here,

Wow.  The weather is great.  The locals say that the weather is like their summer.  High 80's.  Nice.  We're clearing out tomorrow as there is a front coming in.  The N's and W's in the forecast with winds in the 30's is not on my list of things I like to do at anchor.  So we move in the morning.  There are not a lot of anchorages and the safe mooring balls have probably have been taken but there is a place right below John Depps place that we are looking at right near the Exuma Park undersea thing.  Nuts current but should be good holding just off to the side.  In the big current the bottom is scoured so don't want to go there.  We were in this area the other day drift diving.  Wow again.  So if we are stuck there for a couple of days and we have good holding all the better.  There is so much to see.  Then on to Staniel Cay when weather gets better and meet up with another Hauser sister + 3 O'Donnell sisters and Patrick.  Pat and I don't have a chance.  My only chance at manhood is that when the engine is running, I am the captain.  Engine off,  I, perhaps not.
The Belle.  I, for the most part I only work on broken things.  Island time mon.  We have to run the engine to charge the battery bank daily for more time than I would like but hey mon,  it is what it is.  When we get back to the states the boy has work to do.  Right now enjoy and if we have juice to start the engine we're golden.  No, everyone knows me better,  we need at least 2 redundant systems.  Got it covered.
