Big Major's Spot, Exumas, Bahamas

We went over to Staniel Cay to top off with fuel and most importantly, pick up our Maker's Air package. 


 

At the very tall fuel dock....


 

The Yacht Club is not very busy yet this season.  There are usually multiple huge charter yachts here.


 

After fueling, we went to the office and picked up the long-awaited package.  We won't know for a week or so how much it cost to ship - they will bill us for the shipment and duty.  If I read correctly, the shipment probably only cost $35 but the duty will be about 50% of the value of the items!! 

 

Back to the boat....

 

Really not great weather lately!

 

Our prizes!  A new battery pack for the 4 year old Icom handheld and a brand new radio for backup!  Now we can confidently go on long dinghy rides.

 

And we were treated to a beautiful sunset!

We will hunker down over the next 4 days for a very windy weather system to pass over so you'll probably just here me whine about that!
