Third time the Charm?


4-27-92 - Floyd - Passage to Guanaja
Left this morning 0815, call up the ole man on chan 22 to say good-bye, and as the mountains overlooking Trujillo fade into the haze I try not to look back. Light winds from the west aren’t much help, but a sure sign of weather to be around here. We arrive at the light in Guanja at 1445 and make our way to the bight. Guess who is there? Anamia and Nirod from Voyager, really nice to see them again.
We stop over for a brew and see how the little munchkin is growing, what a cute little kid, like her mom.
Sure enough the wind switches to the north and blows hard, not a ferice one but it would have been a bummer in Truijillo. Kind a laze around, spend an evening with Voyager over at the bar and get invited to another party will will miss at one of the people caretaking some land here. Oh well but we are still hoping we will get to Miami in time to meet Fomalhaut before the head to Europe.
