Bahamas - Cat Island, Beached Yacht

We were going slower and slower, so deemed it time to scrape off the barnacles and growth on our hulls. Quite a mammoth task. We’ve found it easier and quicker to beach Meshugga, rather than diving on the hulls.

Nicholas selected a beach at Old Bight on Cat Island which had a fairly steep sandy slope, and on Monday we went aground on the 7am High Tide, having carefully checked that the evening tide would be even higher making it easy to get off the bank.

Nicholas and I were quite ‘Blue’ by the end of our work diving on the Skegs, Rudders and Props. Jenny helped us with the above water sections and cleaning out all our water outlets.
