Finally after a couple of days of winds in the upper 20’s and 30 knots, we were able to get off the boat. Our first day we would head over to Kidd Cove into Lake Victoria and take our computer to a shop for evaluation. It was sad but true that a 52 foot Beneteau READ MORE

On to George Town
With news of another pretty strong north/northeasterly blow, Paradigm Shift headed to George Town where we could get a few groceries and a little better protection from the 30-40 knot wind gusts they are predicting. Of course that means we pulled up the anchor and then we motored through Rat Cay Cut and then another READ MORE
Our Time At Williams Cay
I think I mentioned how much we love this anchorage and as with all the other anchorages we love it seems EVERYONE has agreed as there are more boats here than we have ever seen. We had twenty eight boats here one night whereas before we may have seen twelve. This season we have also READ MORE
5 F’s to Williams Cay
What a couple of days we have had of steady winds……our last day in Black Point we had no desire to get off the boat and bash into the waves in the anchorage only to get drenched. We elected to leave Friday morning for the 5F Festival at Little Farmers Cay. 5 F’s…….First Friday in READ MORE
Staniel Cay to Black Point
With part of our group departing and having to head north, we elected to do a luncheon at Staniel Cay Yacht Club and then hit the local grocery stores. We had Rene and Ryan from Poerava, Greg and Kelly from Bogo, Ray and Christine from Airtime and then John and Joanne from No Limits. Such READ MORE
From Comfort to ”Comfort”
With the westerly winds predicted to gust into the 40 knot range we were definitely in the right place. Boats were moored and/or anchored in Cambridge Cay and they all sat in anticipation of the ”snot getting kicked out of them”. However…….as luck would have it, the largest gust we saw was 28 knots and READ MORE
Playing in the Sand
With the call of more ”weather”, Paradigm Shift and staff elect to move a little further north up to Cambridge Cay where they have a mooring field but more than that they have some westerly protection. We picked up the anchor and motored about 8 miles where we would meander back into the Exuma Land READ MORE
The Good, The Bad & The Ugly
In no particular order, we have had some great weather while here at Rudder Cut Cay. We have been able to get out our Christmas toys and deploy both a hammock (thanks to Jen and Janek) and a paddle board (thanks to Santa). It was so relaxing to lay back in the hammock and declare READ MORE
Another destination
With the gorgeous weather and clean laundry, what’s a girl to do? Move on! And that we did! We have over 700 islands to explore and so little time. With the Covid debacle and weather hold ups, we only signed up for three months here in the Bahamas so our cruising permit will expire mid READ MORE
Onward to Blackpoint
The wind has been mighty fierce these couple of days and as usual we have a fear of getting stuck in Bimini for longer than we wanted. We await our Chris Parker (our weather guru) email to see what the coming days will be like. There is chatter all about the marina of folks leaving READ MORE
