Hole #3 (pic)
In Response To: It felt like 30 :) ()

Besides Little Toot's mooring in hole #3 there now are "slips" there. At least they're piles and the boats are tied to them. No docks. Very safe but around $400 a month. I left my boat at Exuma Docks (Sugar One)for three weeks a few years ago when we had to go home for emergency surgery when my wife got hit by a spotted eagle ray but fellow cruisers checked on it every day. The only reason I left it there was that I had a freezer full of meat and I needed the power! It is not a very nice place. The night before I flew home somebody swiped a jug of diesel off my deck. I chased him down the dock but he took off in a car. There's a gas station right there but it was closed so this guy decided to help himself from the first boat he came to. I only hope he put the jug in his tank before he realized that it was diesel. By the way, what goes around comes around or maybe it's karma. Two years later I was sailing in the sea of Abaco and spotted a yellow thing in the water. Thought it was a lifejacket so I sailed over to it, it was a yellow jug full of fresh diesel! Exactly the same make of jug that was stolen in GT!!
