We have arrived in Marsh Harbor, Abaco. We plan to stay for a month, off and on, here in a marina, which will allow us to pick up a couple sets of guests and explore the local islands.
We ate at our own marina's (Mangoe's) restaurant on “Italian night”, had great pasta and pretty good Caesar salad - not Jerry's, of course. The manager, who knows we're staying a month, is most solicitous. Tomorrow night at Mangoe's is rake and scrape, which is an Island entertainment thing, a guy playing a carpenter's saw with a fish fillet knife - we'll have to catch that!
Monarch looks much better now, after two days of washing the exterior and polishing the stainless. The salt was caked on her from our many days at sea and at anchor.
We’ve made new friends, Dana and Larry from near Spokane Washington, who are on a sailing catamaran here at the marina. Larry caught a large king mackerel, and brought over a big filet. Jerry did it on the barbeque - delicious! Enough left over for mackerel salad sandwiches on Bahamian toast for lunch.
