Short on words, long on pictures.  Busy, busy, I don’t know how I would fit in all the fun time if Jon and Elise weren’t on board.

We left Old Port Cove before first light and were heading out Lake Worth Inlet at dawn.  Again we left as a freighter was coming in.  This one crowded us to the right.  I don’t know if we could have avoided the 5-6′ waves building at the inlet if we had taken the center of the channel.

Luckily the waves spread out, but the first hour was hold on tight as the 3-4 foot predictions I’d been looking at held true.  That meant we saw 5-6′ waves, and the period made them more frequent than was comfortable.  The seas did die as the day went on, but again the last third was confused, luckily they were down to 1-2′ by then.  Good news is no one had to use the bucket although we did have to get it handy.

Old Bahama Bay was lovely.  We found a picnic table in the shade of a large yacht on the T dock for docktails after getting checked in, washed down, and for some of us enjoying a cool dip in the pool.  A sunset walk yielded nice photo ops, but unfortunately the no see ums were out and one of us paid for being healthy.

The Infinite Sea had to leave early, but not too early as we wanted to time our entrance to the Bahama Bank for mid tide rising.
