BV17: Marsh Harbour to Hopetown

Enough with this maintenance in Marsh Harbour! It’s time to get sailing and set our hopes on Hopetown. This was one of our favorite stops in the Abacos. Many cruisers live here full-time on a ball in the harbor which gives the place a very welcoming, community feel. There are lots of quirky little shops, beautiful flower-lined roads and bike paths, great restaurants and the stunning Hopetown Lighthouse, one of the oldest manual Kerosene-lit lighthouses in the world. Lots of pictures of Hopetown for you all in a fun blog post here -- https://havewindwilltravel.com/2018/06/23/bv17-marsh-harbour-to-hopetown/.

Phillip and I were incredibly fortunate to score a ball in the harbor our VERY FIRST night there (some people have waited years for one) and we enjoyed a stunning three-day stay at Hopetown. Enjoy the snorkeling in Marsh Harbour and the sporty sail over to Hopetown, and stay tuned next time for a trip to Little Harbor, a little-known hurricane hole at the south end of the Abacos where we were welcomed by friends who had just built an amazing little bungalow there. Plenty more to come! If you’re more into boat projects, we got plenty going on currently at www.havewindwilltravel.com with our 2018 mini re-fit -- https://havewindwilltravel.com/2018/08/02/shipyard-project-1-reinforcing-our-rudder/. Gotta balance all this play with all kinds of work, but we love it all. Enjoy the posts!
