We left Rock Sound on Sunday, 5/13, for Hatchet Bay. Escaping the thunderstorms to the south of us we welcomed the enclosed bay with grateful feelings. We were very lucky today!!

(trip - 42.9 nm)

Out of Hatchet Bay, Monday 5/14, with a destination of Spanish Wells. We raced through the feared, but respected, Current Cut at 9.7 knots!! Arrived in Spanish Wells an hour before the winds picked up. Now it’s time to kick back, chill and relax as the weather forecast is yucky (windy and thunderstorms) for the next week! (trip - 28.6 nm)

Some pictures from Current Cut

The rocky bar need to pass before the sharp right angle turn with the cut behind.

Escape cruising through the cut at 9.7 knots!!

The ebbing current was ripping at about 4 knots.
