The crew of the 40-foot catamaran Wildly Intrepid sails from Black Point to Big Majors in the Exumas, Bahamas, covering a 10-nautical-mile passage.5:04 The anchorage at Big Majors offers good holding in sand but experiences high traffic from powerboats during the month of June.7:55 The crew explores the area by dinghy, visiting Thunderball Grotto near Staniel Cay.13:13 Accessing the grotto requires snorkeling or scuba diving through underwater openings, though side and back entrances are accessible during slack or low tide.13:36 Strong currents near the grotto can make exiting difficult, necessitating the use of fins.14:53 The crew also reports the failure of semi-flexible solar panels, which developed cracks in the internal tracers after less than a year of use, resulting in negligible power output.2:10 While anchored, the crew manages laundry and provisions while acclimating their toddler to life jackets and water activities.2:51
