White Bay to The Bight, Norman Island

We breakfast at White Bay, before heading to Soper’s Hole for some provisioning.

Mike enjoys himself on the way over to Norman Island, as the wind is not conducive to us sailing a straight path and we have to tack all the way there.  We have lunch on the way - the pork was of such good quality last night that it didn’t shrink so there is lots left over to eat in baguettes with more pineapple relish and mango mayonnaise.

The guests go snorkelling at The Caves, their enjoyment only slightly marred by the fact that everyone except Gina is stung by small jellyfish.  Out comes the vinegar!

After that, it’s round to The Bight.  On the way, Reid catches another tuna but it’s smaller than the one he caught before so it is carefully removed from the line and put back.

We moor just up from Pirates Bight, and after a rum punch on board, the guests depart for the floating bar, the Willy T, for a quick drink before dinner, where Gina and Lauren get tattoos (I am preserving their modesty by not showing the photos!!) and Lauren gets into pirate mode.
