April 4 The sun was just coming up when we weighed anchor at 06:40 and left the anchorage at Manjack Cay. It was a beautiful day to be on the water. Here are some of our sightings today from Persuasion: Passing by Cooperstown on our port side And Powell Cay on our starboard side. Enjoyed […]

April 1 – 3 Crossing the Whale to Green Turtle Cay

This blog post is where we began to start the journey back across the Whale to Green Turtle Cay and stage toward catching the Gulf Stream back to Florida.
