Bahamas - Ragged Island, Hog Cay, Another week of Projects


Our week began with saying Goodbye to our good friends Karen and Duane of Sojourn. They are beginning their slow trip north through the Bahamas and back to North Carolina. We hope to meet them somewhere sometime.
Next morning, Sojourn, sails up and off they go.
Fair Winds

 Our lives continue with Nicholas getting on with his FlyBridge Project in the cave overhang ashore
Meshugga is now the only yacht in Hog Cay anchorage
A few days later, we had 4 yachts arrive, as well as another pigeon, this time on Yacht Roaming Holiday. Linda and Joe brought it ashore as they we're leaving next day.
Guy feeding the pigeon, tame and used to being handled.
After eating he flew up into the rafters of the Hut and was quite happy up there

After dinner we gathered around and made a Bon Fire trading stories. The blue light in the background is Meshugga

Next day we contacted Myron, the Bird Man from Duncan town and he zoomed over to collect the bird. Apparently its a rare special bird with big circles around it's eyes and large nasel protrusions

Monday bright and early we had Raphael from DT come say Hi and join us for a cup of coffee, and to tell us that Capt C, the Mailboat, had arrived in the early hours

We dinghied to Gun Point Government Dock to get our fresh produce and Ice Cream, Yay!
We were the only cruiser collecting so it went very quickly and they'd kindly kept our refrigerated and frozen boxes chilled until we arrived to collect them

Just our dinghy at the Gun Point Government dock to collect from the Mailboat



It's been a busy week, and our project continue, the water is pristine, it's hot and a quick dip is degrigeru to cool down a few time per day.

Take Care and have a great week!
