Made it to the end of Eleuthera Island finally

We departed Hatchet Bay , where there was suppose to be a cave, but no time to check it out since we where in Spanish Wells for so long waiting for a part that never arrived. We left at 6 am and sailed today with high waves and good winds. As we were headed out of Hatchet Bay, there were many small buoys to avoid, they seemed to be in a line on both sides of us, possibly lobster traps. We did find the end of Eleuthera Island, which is 110 miles long Woohoo! Greg said its the Texas of the Bahamas. We crossed Texas on our way to California many years ago, and it took forever it seemed.  I did see some flying fish and was able to video tape them, but I haven't seen dolphins since we entered Spanish Wells.
The cruising guides nor the Explorer charts say much about Red roof area here near Bannerman town. There are a few cute red roofed buildings painted with bright colors on the sides and it looks like they have started a little resort with kayaks, paddle boats and lots of blue beach chairs.( pictures to follow later when we have good internet)
We arrived about around 4pm , but there wasn't a soul on the beach or anywhere to be seen, odd for a Saturday. There is a small dock area, which we could not dock at, we just entered and Greg did a nice U turn and we decided to anchor outside. The water is pristine turquoise here. Greg dove the anchor to check the holding, its rocky around here, even though active captain had a suggested anchorage here. We found sand and we're holding, Greg says worse case, we drift out to sea, oh yeah. We have our anchor alarms set for tonight. It was a little to chilly for me to swim today, ha ha, it still in the 80's , but windy. Yes I need more heat, bring it on!
Tomorrow we set sail for Cat Island.
