Georgetown, Bahamas
[N23d31:653, W075d46:040]
We made it to Georgetown, Bahamas this morning at 9:00 after a 40 hour passage from Mayaguana. We had much calmer crossing than our last two have been. We left Mayaguana at 5:00 pm Friday afternoon. I was a little nervous, I really prefer to leave for a passage earlier in the day, we motor-sailed for about 5 hours then the wind came to the beam of the boat and we had a beautiful sail the rest of the night, we lost some of the wind the next day but the seas were very calm. The wind picked up and
we sailed again and had another dark and starry night. We got into Georgetown, dropped the anchor and went to bed. We were very tired.
We are so happy to stop and stay in Georgetown for a couple of weeks. Glenn's sisters; Jann and Gail will arrive here on Wednesday. We look forward to their visit. We will send photos soon. Happy Birthday to Don Phillips.
Michele and Glenn
