Bad forecasting

Chris P takes a holiday every Thanksgiving. We were going by the NOAA forecast which was low by 10-15 knots.

The Spanish Cay Marina is nearly closed for the season. The restaurant and bar are closed. There's noone in the cottages. The marina store was open and the pool was filled. They gave us off-season rates ($1.50/ft) for the slip.

From here we'll head back up to A-P for a visit to the "YC" then take the big boat outside and anchor just inside the reef for some snorkeling.

We'll likely be in Eleuthera or the Exumas by Christmas.

What's your boat's name? Maybe will see you somewhere later on.
