Blackpoint...





















We put the Big Majors / Staniel islands behind us and enjoyed a great sail down to our next port of call - Blackpoint Anchorage. Here we found the second largest settlement in the Exumas (the first being Georgetown) and with that we found one market, three restaurants/bars and the best laundry facility we've seen since our arrival. So chores took precedence over play - for one day and then it was back to fun.

One day Blair, Laurie, the Captain and I dinghied out to the cut and enjoyed some snorkeling. Blair and Laurie brought their sea doo torpedo pack with them and we had fun zipping around the water with little effort. We enjoyed the variety of coral and reef fishes which swam around, while a barracuda watched. We also spotted a fish trap that was doing its job as it contained several varieties of fish.

Another great day.

Spectacular.....looks like you guys are having a fantastic time. Spring is springing here and Murphy is down to his undershirt. He thinks it's a bit premature now and then, but he only breaks into occasional shivers. Look forward to seeing you in the spring! Murph sends kisses.
