Warderick Wells to Big Majors Spot

Thursday, January 20, 2011


We pulled out of Warderick Wells about 20 minutes before 10am. We’d heard Kasidah call in for a mooring and Georgia E. It was nice to touch base on the radio with both of them again and to learn that Kasidah’s boat problems are now fixed. About an hour and a half out, Azaya started having the surge problems again, so we slowed up to keep an eye on them. They may be staying at Staniel to see if they can get their problem fixed. Mary Clare thinks she may have to have her friend fly into Staniel instead of Georgetown. Hopefully they’ll be able to figure out what the heck is going on with their engine – I’d be worried (heck I am for them!)…

Our anchor is dropped now and we’re sitting at Big Majors (home of the swimming pigs). We stayed aboard the boat (Wayne didn’t feel like seeing the pigs again – we’d already seen them) and Aurora and Azaya got their carrots, and vegis together to feed the pigs. I could see there was a new little piglet on shore but most of the pigs were quite big! Mary Clare said the pigs came out to the dingy, but decided they didn’t like what they’d brought and turned around and went back in. Well! Fussy, fussy, fussy! I’d guess that they’d had their fill for the day.
