Who Were These Pirates Before They became Caribbean Pirates?

Farmers Cay, Exumas
Last stop before heading East to Long Island. We are half way to our destination. I believe we have gone 300 NM and have about that much more to go before we get to Turks and Caicos. Although this island is beautiful, I almost gave up here and went back home. When we tried to anchor here for the night, the current was so strong the boat was going in a circle. I brought the anchor back up and tried again, but instead of the boat tugging back off the anchor, the boat would go forward and the anchor line went under the boat again. It took awhile to figure out that we were in a strong current, stronger than the wind. I gave up and we took a mooring buoy for the night!
It is hard to catch the beauty of the sunsets, but they are beautiful!
