This morning we pulled out of Norman's Cay headed to Highborne Cay, slowly making our return trip North. Do you remember in my earlier post when I mentioned David and Ryan bringing down our spare prop to store in the event of an emergency? Well thank goodness they did; we accidentally hit a lone unmarked rock with the prop pulling out of Norman's Cay. After we recovered from our panic attack, we slowed and David dove in to see how bad the damage was. It was a tiny nick, however it was causing mild vibration. We continued on to Highborne to explore the island and had a wonderful night on anchor.

| The main road in Highborne Cay Look at the limestone walls that line either side of the road, can you imagine the amount of work that went into making the roads. Between the limestone and mangroves it seems like a tremendous amount of work. I read a story that the mangroves; a couple had arrived by dingy and decided to find a more intimate spot for some afternoon delight and got caught in the mangroves and could not get out. Fortunately, they were close enough to the marina that someone heard their pleas for help and came to their rescue, they had to be cut out by machete. Tomorrow we are off to Nassau to get the prop properly checked out and do some much needed boat clean-up. |
