We are completing our transit of the Bahamas and will turn to the North shortly. Good weather has allowed us to continue a lot of work on deck including the Charlie 4/C getting their introduction to basic knots while in the shade of lifeboat #1. There was a lot of focus on preparing the starboard companion way and quarterdeck for our visit to Charleston with liberal use of the fresh water for cleaning and cooling off in the humidity and heat. The flying fish have been entertaining but our intrepid fishermen have not caught anything as of yet.
