Black Point

Had 1-2 footers on the bow, so it wasn't too bad. 19 knots of wind added a little chop to it. Short travel day to Black Point. Got to drop off trash, buy some dish soap, and check out Little Bay Beach in Issac Bay. We thought it was Love Beach and realized we were off by a little due to continuing on to get to a good place to anchor. We need (want!) to anchor in smooth water, not in choppy water.

It worked out okay because this beach was a zero entry beach and had a long, shelf-like shore that was so shallow. Roo and I looked for shells. Moose and Bear used the casting net and a fishing pole. Ben floated and hung out. The kids caught a few fish to use for bait, but nothing bigger.

There was a baby lemon shark that was swimming along the shore. Moose kept trying to catch it, but he scared it with all of his splashing, causing it to swim off every time.

When we were ready to leave, Roo and I got in the tender. Moose and Bear swam back to the boat. Ben pulled us in the tender. He could stand the whole time! He used this opportunity to check on the props and noticed they were, surprisingly, still painted from May!

This anchorage was a bit rollier than we anticipated, but we made it work.
