Happy Valentine's Day Joan!  Happy Valentine's Day Dad and Quinn and Jaylen, Mike and Jody and Jeannine and to all my other loved ones. 

We came into a beautiful anchorage just inside the north tip of Compass Island.  We motor sailed most of the way.  We got an early (8am) start into a 10 knot NE wind.  We headed out East for an hour and then tacked over to a starboard tack.  The wind picked up to about a little over 15 kt. from about noon till two then died off to zero as we came into the cut north of the island.  I told Captain Phil I was proud of him for anchoring in our shallowest depth yet.  He is so used never anchoring in anything less than 10 or 15' that depths showing 1 meter on the chart makes him very nervous.  So, here we are, anchored in 1 meter with (on the chart).  Within 2 minutes of dropping the anchor, Phil was the first in and I was the second.  It is the clearest water we have seen yet.  From 10' in front of the boat, we could easily see the rudder over 50' away.  Tomorrow it will be up early to be off for Eleuthera where Mary and Dewey will depart for Nassau and then Denver.
