En Route from Sail Cay to Green Turtle Cay

 December 8, 2021

We got early again today around 6am to get started off to Green Turtle Cay.  We will need to check into the Bahamas customs office before just dropping anchor anywhere we want for very long.  It’s too bad though since Ron & I both decided that we would give strong consideration to just staying put where we were last night as it was so beautiful and quiet.  We were the only boat in sight, there is zero light pollution, and the stars are amazing, The gentle hum of the fridge is about the only thing you can hear.  I am not sure if it was the weather or not since it was the calmest I have ever seen the water in all of our trips.  

Sadly, all good things must come to an end and with a storm headed our way and the fact we have not checked in means we are off again.  We plan to stay in Green Turtle Marina for the next few days to rest and recover as well as have some consistent WIFI the rest of the week.  I have constant calls, some video, tomorrow and WIFI isn’t strong enough or reliable enough out here just yet.

We arrived to a lovely surprise of a small cay in a crazy rich island town where houses in the  $1M range.  Funny as no one here seems to have a job since the marina club house was full and dance music is on full volume.  It’s 4:00.  I love island time.  Customs has departed for the day and we check in tomorrow.  The marina is also cheaper and WAY nicer than any FL.  How can we go wrong?

About Ron C

Hi, I'm Sally and this is my husband, Ron. I’ve been doing marketing for the last 30 years for tech companies and Ron is a biomedical engineer. Basically, he knows what he is doing and well, I don't. However, the yin and yang of our relationship is total bliss. We decided after 10 years of marriage, the joy of suburbia, and years of travelling, that this was for us. So, we saved, retired, and this is our story. We’ve taken trips to Costa Rica and love it. Nowhere on earth can you see that many masonry animal statues and not a pothole crew in site. Beautiful. Then there was Jamaica where the night before we left, I broke my big toe and was not able to go into the water. Instead, we experienced the most amazing singing bartender while drinking "Shit on the Grass." No lie. Then there was British Virgin Islands where we chartered a boat three times. Twice with just us and the final time with our 4 daughters. Man, there is no better way to hear your kids complain than in a space that small. That was some quality family time there. Now we are empty nesters, we have purchased a Leppard Catamaran and you are invited to come along for the ride. Should be a total hoot.
