Arrived in Marsh Harbour, Abacos, Bahamas

We are anchored off of Man-O-War Cay near Marsh Harbour in the Bahamas after a 180 mile passage from Staniel Cay in the Exumas.
In the southern Bahamas the Exumas are the main cruising grounds and George Town is the main town. In the northern Bahamas the Abacos are the main cruising grounds and Marsh Harbour is the main town. It is another place with thousands of places to anchor and travel can be done in the protection of the barrier reef and the Cays that lie to the north of Grand Abaco Island. In fact the barrier reef is the 3rd longest in the world.

After we explore the area for a while we will be ready for the jump up the east coast of the US.
We are right now due south of Kingston and need to go from 26 degrees north to 44 degrees north or about 1100 miles due north. The next passage will be to one of Charleston, SC or Beaufort, NC or right to the Chesapeake Bay inHampton, VA depending on the weather.

When we get a good Internet connection we will upload the latest video and pictures.
