The weather lately has provided several cold fronts back to back that have supplied us with abundant wind. Cruising ground has ebbed to the area of Marsh Harbour to Great Guana and Man-o-War. We were able to spend a night down off Elbow Cay at Tahiti Beach where we combed the Atlantic beach Saturday (10/21) afternoon and gathered alot of sea glass.

In late August at Fisher’s Bay, Pauline (our wind generator and mascot) was accidentally decapitated. Her head was not retrievable. She underwent extensive reconstructive plastic surgery today and blossomed as Princess Pauline. She is enjoying her new appearance but only wishes she sported a tiara.
