Time to Move

South Bound

Part of our trip this time was to head south to Eleuthera and the Exumas, which is un-explored territory.  A lot of things you expect to find disappear, ie., WIFI, water, fuel, grocery stores or just about any king of store.
 First jump from the south end of Great Abaco from Little Harbor over to Eleuthera at Royal Harbor. We had to motor sail, which is sailing with the assist of motor to keep our speed up. We go into Royal around 3:30p which gave us plenty of light. Royal Island  is owned by Roger Staubach of Cowboy fame.  It was supposed to be a HIGH end resort but the financial bust changed the plans.  Pictures follow of the island.

 On shore there is some fabulous ruins that was a factory that we have no information on what they made.  There is the owners and worker quarters that appeared to have anything they needed. Just a wonderful time exploring.  Will let the pictures tell the story.
