We did not set off today on the first leg of our trip over to the Bahamas. We had planned to travel south to Lake Worth in readiness for an early start on our crossing on Friday morning. We changed our minds because the weather window for crossing on Friday was turning into a tight race to reach West End on Grand Bahama Island ahead of a cold front with strong winds and high waves - a scenario which would be around for quite a few days. The decision not to go ahead was made on Wednesday when David & Linda, and Geoff and Katya from Blue Heaven, came on board for a strategy session.
We will probably head to Lake Worth towards the end of next week and wait, at the north anchorage, for another chance to get across.
In the meantime we can look forward to some warmer weather, we hope. We had a lovely beach walk today. Maybe it will even be swimming weather soon!
