Enough with Staniel Cay. The club was friendly, and the town was mostly under construction. The three grocery stores, however, were pretty sad.
Let's move on - Southbound. But some more diesel would be comforting, as there might not be much fresh diesel until Georgetown. There was a Cat at the fuel dock, taking her time. I needed to charge the batteries, so I just did circuits for almost half an hour. The club's Internet was still down. Finally, I bought 9.5 gallons of diesel for 34 hours. This comes out to an hour per litre, much of which was spent on battery charging.
I had to go to the Club booth to pay, which sort of explains why the Cat took so long to fuel
I set off for either Great Guana Cay North or Little Farmer Cay. Navionics wanted me to take the outside route. I built a route on Aqua Map to go on the inside, but it was shallow. In the end, I improvised and motored around Harvey Cay - a long way around, but not much shallow waters. It was high tide. Winds were very light and close to the nose, and I needed to charge the frickin batteries.

Anchored at Black Point Settlement and went ashore. Not much to see. There was a lot of new home construction, some bars, and the yacht club, which was big into racing and had Wi-Fi, mind you, very slow.
Not tourist at all - a nice change
We walked back to the dinghy and then headed back to the boat for a lovely sunset.
