We just dropped the hook in Royal Harbour. The Atlantic Ocean slapped us around today with 6-to-8-foot seas and 15-to-25 knots of wind. It was a romp that Taia enjoyed much more than her crew. The forecast was 5-to-10 knots of wind a couple of days ago. Yesterday afternoon it was 10-to-15, and an unexpected 15-to-20 picked up in the evening right after we staged in Lynyard Cay.
Of course, we considered staying in the Abacos, but it didn't look like there'd be a weather window to come south any time soon. Also, we could use the experience. And an experience we got! The first one of 2015.
Here we all are, happy to be back in Royal and looking forward to moving on to Eleuthera as soon as the weather allows.
