Sometimes the wind is not with us. Sometimes it seems like nothing is with us. The last couple of days have definitely felt like that. Sailing the Bahamas is not easy but we’ve had a rough couple of days on board Sava.
It Starts With The Windlass
Thursday, March 7th: Elizabeth Harbor, Georgetown to Galliot Cay, Long Island, Bahamas
Brian fixed the windlass enough so we could haul anchor and leave Elizabeth Harbor on Thursday. We spent about an hour at the marina filling up our water tanks since we still have not gotten the watermaker working properly. If you hadn’t guessed, this post is going to give you an idea of some of the things that still don’t work on Sava.
We left the marina in the hopes of catching some of the northeasterly wind to help us go east. It was rough. We probably left the marina before 9am and we were on the sea tacking away from our destination for part of the time, and then to our destination the remainder of the time.
