Once again, we are reminded why schedules are a sailors worse enemy. While we wanted to show our friends Shroud Cay, we decided to head south from Warderick Wells to get at least one day of good sailing before the winds shifted. Had we not, we would have had at least one more day of motoring with the winds and the waves on the nose. Rather than head out in the sound, where we were expecting worse conditions, we decided to stay on the Bahamas Bank side. Yes, it would be a longer distance, but we wanted to see the West Side of Great Exuma Island. We had a great night at Little Farmers Cay. Were able to pick up three huge lobster tails from a local fisherman on the last day of the season. Then we head on over to Ty's for a bonfire at sunset. We got a great nights sleep but needed to weigh anchor early to make our way to about 1/2 of the distance to Hog Cay Cut. We anchored on the southwest side of Coakley Cay (Flamingo Cay) at the end of a "tongue" of deep water. All of the charts showed something different for this region. We spun around at anchor all night despite winds in the 15kn range. The current must have been pretty strong there, something we had not expected. Suffice it to say, I didn't get much sleep due to being woken by the bridle on the bob stays. HJog Cay is a shallow cut on the south side of Little Exuma Island needs to be taken at high tide. We woke at 6am and intended to weigh anchor at 6:30. We're glad we started earlier than this because the bridle had somehow gotten caught underneath the starboard hull...very weird.
We all hit moments where life feels like it's standing still. You may feel stuck, unsure of what to do next, or like you’re just going through the motions. It’s a frustrating place to be, but remember, it’s also a temporary phase. The key is not to stay in that stuck feeling. Start by acknowledging your emotions. It’s okay to feel lost sometimes — it doesn’t mean you’ve failed. Once you allow yourself to feel, begin reflecting on what’s truly important to you. Reconnect with your goals, values, and passions. Next, break the situation down. Big changes can feel overwhelming, so focus on small, manageable steps that will lead you toward a clearer path. It’s about progress, not perfection. And finally, remember that you don’t have to do it alone. Seek support from friends, family, or a mentor who can offer perspective and guidance. Change starts within, but sometimes, it helps to talk it through with someone who gets it. Don’t give up. You’ve overcome obstacles before, and you have the strength to keep moving forward, no matter how stuck you feel right now.
