West End

John Travolta's Condo at West End

Today was very stormy. It was a very lazy day.  It rained most of the day.   It was very relaxing to just stay on the boat during the rain storms.  After the rain stopped, we had hot dogs and hamburgers on the picnic table on the dock. Nothing is better than a good hot dog off a grill.

April 6^th 2011We had another wonderful day without any excitement …..of course we didn’t move the boat. Met some people from Augusta on the Salty Dawg, a fishing boat.  They caught a tuna they believed to be about 100 pounds, but did not have any scales that would weigh that high.  I had to admit I brought my bathroom scales.  They used my scales and the fish weighed 87 pounds.  The young man who looked to be about 15 or 16 fought the tuna for about an hour before he brought him in.

Greg cooked lobster for dinner. I know lobster again.  You just can’t get too much lobster.  We are expecting to go to Lucaya tomorrow.  We met a lot of good people in West End.  Most of them are leaving as well.  Good weather.

We left for Lucaya about 8:45.  The wives are sailing with us today.  Two of the wives have trouble with sea sickness but they took some meds and seas were smooth, so all was well.  Arrived in Lucaya about 2:45 and of course Celebration feed their crew, but Martini’s crew was starving when we got off the boat.  So, we had to eat again.  Too full to eat a big dinner so we opted to have ice cream for dinner. I made an appointment to have my hair cut on Saturday….pictures later.  Tomorrow we hope to have our windlass fixed AGAIN!  I also want to wish my brother a great Big Happy Birthday tomorrow and a get well wish as well.
