Chub Cay to Bimini to North Palm Beach, Florida - Bye, Bye, Bahamas
The winds have calmed and crossing to Bimini via the North Channel goes smoothly (74NM). We anchor at a nice little bay in front of Bimini and have a quiet night on the hook. Morning brings unexpected showers but not a great deal of wind and we are once again in clear skies within the hour. It is a good reminder of how to use our radar system and fog horn. Larry puts the fishing line in and catches a small Mahi Mahi, which he kindly releases to grow a bit bigger. We enter the Lake Worth inlet to crazy-busy Saturday marine traffic…sport fishers flying by, jet skis jumping boat wakes, paddle boarders & kayaks floating in the channel…who knew the most challenging part of the cruise would be getting from the inlet to the North Palm Beach Marina (77NM)
