The winds had calmed after gusting on and off 25-35knts. during the night. We motorsailed with Soggy Paws to Guanaja. They'll wait here for a weather window to go on 'around the corner', and we'll play and explore until we have to get back to Roatan to pick up our batteries. Michael's cousin Alan keeps threatening to come join us ....we hope so! Guanaja is the second largest of the Bay Islands, (and highest), but the mainland is only slightly developed. Bonaca Town is on a cay (island), that serves as the main hub. We'll explore that another day. We took a mooring at Josh's Cay, on the outer reef. What a cute resort here! Graham (from Cayman Is.) has been here 14 yrs. and has made a unique spot. (And that's after hurricane Mitch wiped him completely out!) Getting off the dinghy you see the fish/lobster/sharks/goliath grouper/turtles in natural pens along the protected reef. He has a big selection of our feather friends also...even homing pigeons and different dove species- from Cayman Is. also. We can get fresh water (jerry can it), free ice and wifi, bar/resturant (24/7)...it's a nice spot to wait for weather going east or west!
Michael and Susan left Florida in April 2007 aboard their Westsail 43 INFINI to fullfill a dream of full time cruising. They completed their circumnavigation in June 2017.
