Pete flies home and my buddy T.O. arrives.  I make him tour Atlantis aquarium before we head to Berry Islands.

We hook into another mahi mahi as we sail to Berry Islands.

This fish gives us 5 days of good eating.

Approaching storm at Frazier's Hog Cay anchorage.

We get slammed by the worst storm of the trip at Frazier's Hog Cay

Anchored at High Cay.  We had a sleepless night with sloppy seas.  Planning our next move.

Anchored off of White Cay.  This was a great place to play.

Ship Cay was a great stop.  We bought a meal ticket for $20 and had a great lunch with the Powerboat Adventures group.  Shane did us right with his special tropical cocktails.

Back in Nassau anchored out in Nassau harbor.  I read this is a bad place to anchor but it suited us just fine.

Anchored out in Nassau Harbor.

We are in the cheap slips at Atlantis Marina.  They come with an Atlantis water park free pass.
