Keeping up with the Joneses

I can't get over the image of zingaro looking at us, while it tried either to join us at the second anchorage or escape to Nassau without us.

Zingaro might have been onto something because contrary to the forecast it blew 19 knots from the SW , the side from which we were totally unprotected in that anchorage. To make matters worse there swells coming from the cut were at least three feet, so we rock and rolled all night long. Juan must have got up at least ten times to tie lines and try to stop the banging.

This morning, Sweet Tides smarting with envy and dying to get on the blog, since it couldn't untie itself, it let go of the dinghy. Luckily again the wind at night blew against the shore so it landed on the beach rather than in Nassau, so Juan and Mike were able to retrieve it, full of water and sand but intact.

Now we are on our way to Shroud Cay, closer to the Batelco tower so hopefully I won't need to hoist the Blackberry to the mast. I must confess that as we saw Zingaro loose yesterday my first concern was the Blackberry hanging from the mast. Talk about prorities, right?
