Great Sailing Day

Left Long Island, Thompson Bay, headed for the north end of Long Island, Calabash Bay.  You know the spot that Columbus stopped at on his voyage to find North America.  Well the winds were great, 15 to 20 from the ESE and the waves were gentle so we decided to go further, Cat Island.  We had planned on going to Cat the next day so this would just make it happen sooner.

Continued with great winds, the seas built a little but for the day we were in the zone.  Eight hours of sailing and averaged 7.5 knots for the trip.  It is only 65 miles and in a car that would be an hour but for us it was a bit longer.  Got into Cat Island, Joe Sound Anchorage at 5pm.  No pictures but a great sailing day.

Today's trip

We are anchored at the upper end of this beach
