It is a good thing we left Eleuthera when we did. That one day was the only weather window since and looks like the only one for the next week. We had planned on staying in the Abaco for a few weeks but there are others here who would like to get going. The winds have been a constant 20-25 kts with gusts to 30 kts. The marina is very sheltered (as is the pool) but boats are pinned down.
Boats leaving here for the north have to cross Whale Cut about 17 miles north. This is open to the ocean on the east and NE or E winds virtually close it to passages. The winds have been from that direction for a week and are forecast to remain so for at least another five days.
Hopefully, April will be less windy.
