We departed Atlantis/Nassau at 1005 and sailed to Petit Cay at 1700 after motor sailing with and average speed of 7.57 knots. There are three other boats here, and we are North of Devil Cay by about 15 miles. We plan on departing here in the morning for Lacaya, which will take about 7 hours and spend the night to wait for a weather window to ride the Gulf Stream to Fernandina Beach on Sat/Sun. Ben was my sail trimmer and helmsmen, along with Bill and Tom. Life is good, but I miss the Pussycat already. I have Ben preparing Spaghetti for our dinner, and we have already consumed the Summer Sausage and pepper cheese. The wind is blowing at about 15 knots, and the wind generator is howling. I forgot to get the ground beef out to thaw and fired up the Honda generator to run the mico wave. We watched Cadillac Records last night and everyone fell asleep before the end. S
Well if you poor culinerily challenged guys are starving by the time you reach Fernandina, I recommend the Down Under restaurant. It's right on the ICW; you can probably tie up there. It was a high point when I "discovered" Fernandina Beach a few years ago on a ramble through Florida. Bon appetit!
