The crew of Sweet Ruca completed a six-day passage from Annapolis to the Bahamas, encountering 35-knot winds during their Gulfstream crossing.7:44 To prepare for offshore conditions, the crew moved the dinghy from the davits to the foredeck to prevent wave damage and centralized heavy gear, including spare sails, near the boat's center to reduce pitching.4:07 During the transit, the crew maintained speeds of seven to ten knots while navigating north of the Bahama Banks.4:53 Upon arrival at Eleuthera, they entered through the narrow passage between Egg Island and Little Egg Island.9:30 The crew anchored at Meeks Island, where they verified the anchor set by diving, climbed the mast for a visual survey of the shallows, and used paddleboards to explore the area.12:08 The passage proved challenging for their dog, Roxy, who struggled with balance in heavy seas, and the crew reported significant wave action in the cockpit.8:07
