A close call 😬 (Patreon)

Hi guys!

In this week's video, Ava and I sail from BVI to The Bahamas. It was a very slow trip, thanks to the lack of wind! We did our best to wait for wind and avoid thunderstorms at the same time, but there was no pleasing the weather gods. Five hundred miles of motoring, here we come! ;) We had a VERY close call with a line wrapped around one of the blades on the prop. Thankfully, it didn't wrap around the saildrive! For the next boat, I think we'll splurge on some line cutters :)

It's been around three weeks since we shot this video. We have had a fantastic time in The Bahamas, and this will not be our last trip! It is tough to find nicer water than The Bahamas! We have seen all the highlights in the Exumas. When we return, it would be nice to find good places where fewer people go - I fear the Exumas will be too busy for me during the high season. So far, our best dives were all down by Inagua, which seems well off the beaten path. I suspect a lot of the dive sites that are listen near the popular stops in the Exumas are there because of proximity not because it's the best The Bahamas has to offer :)

We expect to be in Florida sometime next week - stand by for comments about it being too hot ;) Hopefully we'll have an update on the potential new boat soon - the paperwork is a bit of a labyrinth.

Thank you so much for your support! Have a fantastic weekend :)
