Hopetown to Marsh Harbor, 8 mi Mon. May 22, 2023

Starting to slowly make our way back northbound. May take 10 days or so with a storm brewing in Florida.

17 foot waves coming Friday off the Florida coast. Time for us to be patient and stay in a protected harbor.

Arrived in Marsh Harbor in time for a dingy ride to a restaurant for lunch.

Tristan, known as Fatty, told us about conch shells and mollusks. Conch fritters, cracked conch, conch chowder, conch cooked in foil….All Bahamian favorites.

Visited Maxwell ‘s Grocery Store. Any provisions you need are found here.

  1. Great pictures of Fatty and the conches! Did he cook them at his stall?
    Sounds like a neat cookbook and video project to write the recipes and capture the life of the Bahamians.
