SeaBase Bahamas, day 7. Our last sunrise in Marsh Harbour for this trip did not disappoint. Today’s tasks were to pack our gear and get it off the boat and onto the dock. The boys then had to clean the boat to the “ship shape” condition; as it was when we boarded. That was accomplished fairly quickly. Captain Lou and Captain Rick sat us down in the cockpit to give out some special awards to the Scouts that went above and beyond what was expected. We did our usual Rose, Bud, Thorn with the captains, taking about our likes and dislikes from the trip. We said our goodbyes to Captain Lou, Captain Rick, and Buoy (their dog) as they head off to their native Australia for 5 months, welcoming a new grandchild. Safe travel Captains! Hope to see you someday on another trip.

We had some lunch at the marina then we were off to the Marsh Harbour Airport. We Arrived in Miami for an extended layover, then boarded an evening flight to Hartford to finish our once in a lifetime trip that the boys will remember forever.

Special shout out to Mr Staples, Mr Stewart, and Mr Harrington for the photography contributions.

SeaBase Bahamas, day 6. We woke up at Hope Town to a beautiful backdrop of the lighthouse. Our first stop for the day was Man O War Cay. Captain Rick brought us ashore and gave us a tour of the island. He told us about the history of the Cay and the Bahamas. After a couple of hours we went back to the boat and proceeded to Twin reef and Tombstone reef. Each reef was unique in what it had to offer. Some had very colorful coral and others had some beautiful fish. We then proceed to a sunken sailboat where we snorkeled around that for a while. Our final stop for the day was just outside of Marsh Harbour.

We finished the day with the “coconut boys” going ashore and trying to open the coconuts they collected.

Tomorrow is our final day. We will dock at the marina, clean the boat, and head to the airport.

A special thank you to Captain Rick and Captain Lou for a wonderful, adventurous trip. We will miss you.

SeaBase Bahamas, day 5. We woke up to another beautiful sunrise greeting us to start our day. We had anchored just outside of Hope Town, waiting for high tide to go into the harbor. At 7:30 am we were able to get in and anchored the boat in the harbour. We went ashore and climbed the lighthouse, walked around and shopped, had lunch, swam in their pool, walked around more, had ice cream, went to the beach and swam in the big waves then went back to the boat for dinner.

SeaBase Bahamas, day 4. We woke up to another beautiful Bahamas morning. Jacob and Ben were on cooking crew for the day. They made scrambled eggs with ham and toast. Zach and Andrew were on dish duty and cleared the dirty dishes pretty quickly. Once breakfast was cleaned up, we headed out to Delilah Cay where we snorkeled to three man made wrecks placed there for coral to grow and create a reef.

We headed back to the boat for a quick lunch, then we were on the move again. We headed to Bakers Rock and Tahiti beach where we swam ashore and enjoyed the sandbar. The boys discovered a swing and others found coconuts.

We had a great pasta dinner, dishes were cleaned up quickly, and the boys pulled out their sleeping gear to set up for the night.
