On this episode we talk about our sail over from Little Harbor, the Venturi Effect that happens in the afternoon at Cat Harbor, Picking up a mooring and our adventures below the water at Isthmus Cove.
With a short sail of only 3 nm from Little Harbor we enjoy the luxury of sailing as slowly as we needed to, taking in the sights, sounds and the sun. As we approached the anchorage the winds began to build directly on our nose. I had left the main up with the intention of dropping it inside the anchorage but once we got into the mouth of Cat Harbor we were heeled over so far that our starboard rail was buried. So I decided to take us back out to sea and drop the main. The gusts felt to be over 25knts with sustained around 17knts. The anchorage near the shore was full with boats and it seemed the only place to anchor was out in the open completely exposed so I decided to pick up a mooring ball.
Have a listen to hear our experiences at this peaceful anchorage.
