Rock Sound to Ten Bay to Meeks Patch via Current Cut, Eleuthera, Bahamas

A quick hop from our anchorage at Rock Sound to one at Ten Bay (19NM) for a nice evening at anchor. The next day we decide to push a little further as the winds are coming from the south and that does bode well for anchoring in this area of Eleuthera. Larry navigates us to and through Current Cut which must be timed with a high tide as the approach can be five feet at low tide. We take it slow and steady and pass smoothly through the cut. On the opposite side the wind is still a bit of an issue for anchoring but we eventually find protection at Meeks Patch (45NM) right across from Spanish Wells.
