The sunrise was again blocked on Sunday, December 7, 2025, but it had a neat effect on one of the clouds.

We pulled up anchor at 0630. We stayed inside the lagoon the entire time. The wind was again light at 10-knots, creating 2 – 3 feet of wind chop. However, we were motoring directly into the wind, so we were in head seas and Kosmos was hobby horsing. It wasn’t bad, but it certainly was not comfortable, either. It was one of those transits where we listened to audiobooks instead of reading books. The temperatures were in the high 70s, but the humidity was high. Being hot and sweaty added a little more discomfort to the transit. We ran at 1600 RPM and averaged about 6-knots.

We arrived to the Big Major Cay anchorage at about 1430. This time we anchored closer to Cruiser’s Beach, which was a little farther from the town on Staniel Cay.

Wanting to be on dry land, we got the dinghy down and went to Cruiser’s Beach. No one else was onshore.

Once we had enough land time in that we felt grounded, we headed back to Kosmos for the night. Here was the twilight.

And some sharks circling around the boat as we watched the sky.
