Sailing Rum Cay and Conception Island With Friends - Episode 24

We pick up some good friends of ours in George Town, then sail to some of the smaller islands near the southern Exumas. We spend a day in Calabash Bay on Long Island catching up with cruiser friends, then we head off for a day of sailing over to Rum Cay. There we discover what it is like to be on the wrong side of unpredictable weather. We then head over to Conception Island, a small and remote island with a gem of a mangrove river full of turtles and rays.
