on the way to Offatts - part 2

Aransas Bay - Pauls Mott

We left Bahia with a bit more wind than advertised and after a bouncy night (not the wind - lots of tugs and they don't go slow and throw a big wake). Took a bit longer than we figured as the tide was wrong (about a 1.25 kn current) but all was well. Was a bit strange not having to go via Lydia Ann as now we can get under the bridge on 361. As predicted the winds shifted to the NE and the bay was just a little choppy and was great after we got to the lee of the island. We anchored down and had an arrival "lemonade" (ok it was red and out of a wine bottle). Here is the view from the aft deck as we are enjoying our arival;


Tomorrow a bit longer trip to anchor out in Matagora Bay.
