Cosa tratta questo video
A squall from the west sends 2–3-foot waves into the anchorage at Double-Breasted Cay, forcing Alex, Cory, and the kids to abandon the rolling anchorage and motor to Buenavista in the Ragged Islands.0:08 Buenavista offers calm conditions but limited good-holding spots — three other boats had already taken the best positions, so the crew anchors in the middle of the cut, avoiding coral heads.3:31 The area rewards the move: dolphins appear en route, snorkeling reveals conch shells, starfish, turtles, and rays, and the seabed holds scattered debris from a Starlink rocket that broke up over the Ragged Islands.2:27 Cory's wing foil bladder pops mid-session and he drifts away, requiring a dinghy rescue.11:49 Friends Melissa, Chris, Mako, and Kodiak arrive on the other side of Buenavista, prompting a rendezvous and a group hike across the island with children ages one through six.12:15 A flat-calm day allows paddleboard exploration south of Double-Breasted Cay.16:03 Alex reflects on five years of making excuses to skip the Raggeds and on balancing boat maintenance — including rotten core work — against cruising enjoyment after a month and a half in the Bahamas.4:48
