The adventures of Paul and Stephanie aboard the MV Infinite Sea.

Monthly Archives: June 2016

As I was unable to get on the Internet at our last few stops, but want to post some of the pics and highlights, I am going to try one last post with links to pages with pictures for each stop.

Marsh Harbor stop one: Abaco Beach Resort

We hopped across the channel to the Abaco Beach Resort In Marsh Harbor, well actually outside the harbor, but technically in town.

The highlight of this stop was a side trip to Pete’s Pub.  My contact at Abaco Beach Resort, Kevie, was able to arrange a taxi driver with a bus large enough to hold the whole crew, so off we went by road instead of boat, like most boaters.

After visiting Abaco Beach, we visited a more down to earth Marina, Mangoes.

From Mangoes we headed back for our long weekend stop at Bluff House Marina in Green Turtle Cay.

Here’s what you get when you tell the kids on a sailboat to go outside and play.

 

One of our preoccupations at this stop was the weather watching. After pushing the comfort zone crossing over, we owed the crew a decent crossing back. It looked like once the winds died, the waves were going to quiet too for a four day window.  So we booked early and headed back via Great Sale Cay.

Smooth seas for the crossing back, aaahhh!

On the way to Great Sale Cay, Jon threw out a line or two.  He provided the entertainment for the long trip catching two large barracuda.  They were great fighters, and then they had to face Elise who wrestled the hooks out so we could toss them back as they are not good eating.  Both were over 3′ long.

Another highlight was the whooo whooo we got from the guys on a passing boat when Elise and I  waved them off because we had a fish on.  Who would have thought the Infinite Sea would join the ranks of the Bahamian fishing fleet??

Paul took advantage of the additional captain on board to relax a bit on the ride across Florida.

One highlight was being hailed by Legacy dockmates, Gail and Chris on Tortuga who were heading up north for their summer cruise.
