Cruising With Meghan

Meghan arrived at Marsh Harbor on Sunday 3/25. We took her shopping for groceries and then left Tuesday for Great Guana Cay. We anchored in front of Grabbers Beach Bar. They have a nice setup for boaters with very nice lounge chairs for boaters to use.
The water is around 77-80 degrees but it still feels a bit chilly if the wind is blowing. It took her a few minutes to get in but there are lots of fun things to look at. No, you can't eat it! There is another bar on Great Guana Cay called "Nippers". They are located on the Atlantic side on a beautiful beach. They serve a great Rum Punch and good Conch Fritters. We had to carry Meghan back to the boat after her rum drink, lightweight!


Baker's Bay is a beautiful stretch of beach at the northern tip of Great Guana. It is in the process of being developed for a resort with a golf course. The locals are not happy about it as they claim the fertilizer used for golf courses are harmful to the reef and all the marine life in the area. However, it is providing lots of jobs for locals that arrive from other islands to work on the development. Ferries bring workers back and forth daily.

What is Captain Clean looking at? Did he loose something? Is he passed out? Is he sleeping? He is looking thru the kayak's "seethru" floor at the anchor. Looks good!



Adios from the Captain, First and Second Mate

Thanks, as a kind gesture my dad had sent me, his guest, into the water to check the anchor, hence the googles.
