We rise at 3:30am after a very bouncy nap anchored in the Atlantic. Checking in with Holokai we find that he has been up since midnight and is eager to get underway before the now brisk winds make raising his anchor solo more treacherous than he'd prefer. So, the Casstaway crew make necessary preparations to follow Holokai quickly, including donning our PFDs and safety gear and packing a bag of...

Around 6:30am on Saturday May 21, we leave our anchorage at Spanish Wells, St. George Cay, to begin the last leg of this Bahamas adventure. It was a gorgeous morning on the water - wind on our port between 14 and 17 knots, partly sunny skies, both sails full and engine off. We arrive at Rose Island Beach in time for a late lunch. Rose Island Beach is on the opposite side of the island from the...

Since there is a complete lack of wind and no chance of sailing, we decide to pull anchor anyway and motor our way to Governors Harbor, where we will spend the night and wait for better conditions for reaching Current Cut on Friday.

Rollezz has a restaurant that came highly recommended by fellow boaters we met in Black Point so Dave makes reservations for the three of us for dinner tomorrow, Thursday 28. Can't say enough great things! We enjoyed a...
