Friday 06 February – Staniel Cay – Compass Cay, 15 miles.

Forecast for Saturday Sunday is for SW- NW at 25-30 kts – not a good time to be in an unprotected anchorage. It started to fill in early Friday morning and it made for an exiting undocking maneuver at Staniel with 20 kts on the beam blowing us on to the dock. Jason the dock hand did an amazing job guiding us of the dock.

We headed north in 20-25 kts SW – fast but rolly poly ride. Destination Compass Cay which has an incredibly protected marina and lots of nice hiking trails on the Cay.

The entrance to compass is pretty intricate with the last 3-4 miles zig zagging between shallow sand bars. No coral reefs – thank Buddha.

Got in some time after luck and celebrated with a Kalik and one of Tucker Rolle’s Cheeseburgers. Literally and Cheeseburger in Paradise…
