Saturday March 30. 2024 Rum Cay to Cat Island
OK, time to head back to Cat Island. We had a long day ahead of us so the flopper-stoppers were raised, engine checks done and set the autopilot for Conception Island. Hannah made a yogurt, fruit, and nut mixture for breakfast after getting all the sails up and shutting down the engine. Pure sailing today with a nice breeze out of the north east. Once offshore the swells are real ocean swells so a lot of riding up and down the waves and troughs. A good reading day with a lunch of spaghetti with red sauce and veggies. We passed Conception and then headed north to Cat Island. The plan is to anchor near the airport so we can walk there tomorrow. Erick turned the engine back on as the wind died and we picked up speed. We anchored about 5:00 pm which means happy hour was late. Rum drinks and then Thai lettuce wraps (rice, ground turkey and spices) for dinner. Tonight we went for a movie (Capt Ron, a boater's old classic) and popcorn. Off to bed and our last night on the boat.
