EVEN NOW; WITH A THOUSAND LITTLE VOYAGES UNDER MY BELT.
I STILL FEEL A MEMORIAL CHILL ON CASTING OFF.

STILL AT EMERALD BAY MARINA ON GREAT EXUMA, BAHAMAS AND IT'S STILL VERY WEATHERY - Got to admit if you have to be stuck somewhere - this is the place to be.  For a $1.00 a foot per day you get floating docks, free laundry facilities, free WI-FI, gorgeous shower rooms,  use of the club house and a beautiful grocery store/liquor store within walking distance.  You pay extra for electric and water, but we are own little floating city with a generator and watermaker on board, so those items are not needed. The marina staff is top notch and very friendly - so not a bad place to be when the winds they are a blowin.  Our new big ass Wi-Fi antenna just arrived - looks like the Captain has a new project to keep him busy. 

This is the the channel into and out of the marina - doesn't look like we will be leaving any time soon.

Big rollers crashing onto the beach.

Waves crashing onto the rocks.

There is an 18 hole - Greg Norman designed golf course here - also part of Sandals Resort/Marina at Emerald Bay.
Oh, Oh - looks like that ball went into the water hazard - I think, if I were him - I would take the extra stroke.

Damn - wish I would have brought my clubs!

Some of the real estate.


and at the end of the day, if you see a rainbow (like the boat name in the right of pic) - It's all Good!

  1. Looks like you guys are making the best of bad weather. Never been into Emerald Bay, it was closed when we were in Gtown last. Heard it had a problem with surge. Has that been fixed or just a rumor?
    We're still in Stuart but having fun... so not a bad thing.
    Have fun
