Elbow Cay, Abacos, Bahamas

 We finally escaped Lynyard Cay for a short sail north a couple of hours to the Tahiti Beach area of southern Elbow Cay.   Ross and Phyllis pulled anchor earlier and sailed away as well.

 

We did have to turn an engine on to make progress a couple of times when the wind was not in our favor.   The winds are still strong from the east so there were a few areas with a bit of a swell but nothing unmanageable.  The worst of it was this sport-fisher boat that powered at full blast by us unnecessarily close to us throwing up a 4' wake directly on our side.  

Pretty little island house....this was damaged heavily during Hurricane Dorian but looks like it's back in good repair now.

Anchored at Tahiti beach - there is a sandbar at low tide and a swim-up restaurant and bar called the Thirsty Cuda.

And we were treated to a couple of brave wind-surfers. 

Not the smoothest anchorage as the swell from passing boats and the ocean swell wrapped around a bit in the night.  Nothing dangerous....strong east winds are going to "trap" us here for a while before we can head north towards the US.
