Dec 7- Dec 22, 2017. Hopetown to Abaco Beach Resort, Marsh Harbour

Dec 7- Dec 22, 2017  Hopetown, Elbow Cay to Abaco Beach Resort, Marsh Harbor, Great Abaco

Had a lovely sail over to our final destination in Marsh Harbor!



We will keep a slip at The Abaco Beach Resort and Boat Harbour Marina for 3 months.  Through joining the Royal Marsh Harbor Yacht Club, we got a substantial discount on dockage and can hang out with other boating folks here for the warm winter. When its nice we will explore the island chain, and when its not, we have a safe place at the dock.

  

Took a 3 hour sail over to Man O War Cay and anchored in the harbor.  Then rented a golf cart to explore the unpaved roads.
Below is "Low Place", where the Atlantic Ocean is just steps away from the Sea of Abaco.  So, we took a swim in both, and the ocean was warmer!

  

 

Lots of activities here!  And about 40 boats, some sail, some power. We have been to yoga and  learned to play Pickleball. We have snorkeled, been scuba diving, and even tried our hand at lobstering. Carol is the spotter and Bob uses his new pole spear. All done while snorkeling.

  

The Christmas season is upon us in the islands!
  


At the Yacht Club party with Dave and Cheri on Blue Sky.

We fly home tonight for a week to celebrate the holidays with our family!
Merry Christmas!
