Ep 267 | Offshore Sailing Turks & Caicos to the Bahamas

This time on Distant Shores we set sail from the Turks and Caicos Islands heading for the Bahamas, where we explore some of the remote Family Islands on our way to George Town, a crossroad for cruising sailors and home of the National Family Island Regatta. Besides the regatta of traditional Bahamian sloops, swimming with dolphins in the wild is a highlight. 00:00 Show Introduction 00:39 Southbank Marina, Provo, Turks and Caicos Islands 01:15 Banks sailing away from Provo 03:00 Offshore to Acklins Island, Attwood Harbour anchorage 04:18 Night sail to Long Island, Bahamas 06:42 Jibing past Long Island 07:31 Elizabeth Harbour, George Town and Stocking Island 07:49 Swimming with dolphins in the harbour 08:45 Family Island Regatta racing sloops 10:20 Planning the voyage north through the Exumas #sailingbahamas #codezerosail #nightsail
