The West Coast of Cat Island

We took the Whaler along the coast to the north, all the way up to Orange Creek. Didn't see anything I'd cruise that direction for. That is pathetic to say when we are in crystal clear water, and gorgeous coral reefs!

We came back to the boat, and proceded with the MERCY to the south, around Alligator Point, to eventually anchor in New Bight, towards the southern end of Cat Island. There were a few caves along the coast that we HAD to anchor the MERCY and go explore by Whaler.

We had to go into Culbert's Creek Harbour, and into Fernandez Bay, just to check them out. The boat we were travelling with ran over the tow line to his dinghy, and wrapped the line in his wheel enough it killed the engine. Allen and I swung by, picked up the drifting inflatable, and dove the line out of his wheel. Allen and I are getting our teamwork down pretty good! We did a mighty professional looking job!

We anchored for the night off a gorgeous sandy beach, after idling the coast looking for unlocked wifi. We managed to download emails, which we have been unable to answer, as we have not been able to connect for more than a few seconds. By the time this blog posts, we may be in Exumas! (unless we stumble across wifi somewhere)
