Title: Quick Update - Marsh Harbour, Great Abaco Island Tuesday 8th May

[<< Prev Post] | [Next Post >>]
[Back to Index/Map]

26:32.86N 077:03.49W

We arrived here at 1630 yesterday after a straightforward passage from Nassau. We had expected to have to motor the whole way but the wind did blow sufficiently for us to sail for a few hours of the 26 hour trip.

Very narrow, shallow entrance into marsh harbour that we tackled at low tide with less than 20cms of water under the keel.

Off to explore now.
