More Abacos

Finally able to post more photos and story about our Bahamas trip and beyond





-We made it to Marsh and took anchored in the Harbour . This is a pic of the famous Jib Room at
Marsh Harbour Yacht Club and Marina. Many cruisers come over early and get a slip and spend the entire winter here.




Behind the job room there is a small patio where they have scrape and rake parties and limbo contests, above is the limbo guy, he eventually went under the pole just 8 inches high!





Here our friends from Stargazer are dancing an as others play the saws using screwdrivers!




After we stayed a few days at Marsh Harbour we sailed over to fisher bay and went to the famous beach bars there, this is Grabbers beach, across the island on the ocean side is Nippers!

After our Grabber and Nippers visit we then sailed down to Hopetown, as we approached above is the famous lighthouse.





We picked up a ball in the Harbour and here is what we looked at every day, at night the light would sweep over us, way to cool!




Here is a view from the lighthouse at Hopetown, discovery is to the right of Anita






Above is just one of the cute houses in Hopetown





Another gorgeous shot from Hopetown





So many historic places in Hopetown






The main road in downtown Hopetown





Pic of the works at the top of the lighthouse in Hopetown , still hand wound and had light!






After Hopetown we sailed north to famous treasure beach, voted one of the top ten beaches in the world ! We anchored in the Harbour .







Treasure is pretty special!






After treasure we went thru the whale pass and went to green turtle, we took a ball in white Harbour and went to new providence at black sound.
