February 2 - 9, 2017 Treasure Cay and Tiloo Cay


a Cayman Island 150 ft boat at the dock in Treasure Cay, with a large Canadian Flag
at the bow ….  "No Boys"  it had a very faint "u" in the name so "No Bouys"
I guess there must of been a Canadian on board, or it is owned by a Canadian


Women's showers


Men's Showers
we anchored out in the small harbour and got to use the showers .. and we did need them  


walking one of the most beautiful beaches in the Abacoes, just to the North of
Treasure Cay village


this house is being built and note the copper eave troughs and down spouts,
it sure was impressive


Saturday morning brought a flea market, there was lots of food, crafts all by local artists


I'm going to try and grow this back home .. air plant in a sea shell


another day has come and gone, we are off tomorrow for Hope Town


Ben and Jane on Old Rosie said we could use their mooring ball in Hope Town, while they
came back to Marsh Harbour for supplies .. awaiting one of their sons to arrive
… it never amazes me how boaters come up with inexpensive solutions to problems .. a dinghy seat out of plumbing parts


the next day found us sailing slowly down past Tahiti Beach, we have to transit this part at rising mid tide, so we have enough water under our keel …. note people walking on the sand bar


we spent a few nights on the north end of Tiloo Cay, one other boat came to anchor, and it turned out
to be Next Chapter, Nova Scotia, Canada …. we had a short visit the next
morning as Rye rescued one of our fenders, so glad we have Modaki written on them

… when a piece of property is to be sold, there is always a dock erected first, this is one such dock, and
it goes no where


we are not even sure if it has ever been used by any one


but in this area this place is for sale … 3 1/2 acres with a pool
…. they have dynamited a small basin, for power boats


inside the basin


I wonder if the Go Fast boat is included


then we move on to the next place … same idea of a small basin
we have never seen any one here in the last 3 years … the building is always bordered up


it too is too shallow for a sail boat, low tide here


looking out at Modaki at anchor


we saw this idea, in Nova Scotia, of a clothes line to keep your boat away from the rocks and dock


this is one of the most beautiful places on Tiloo Cay, there is 2 large buildings and 3 small ones, with the same blue roof and verandas 


it even has a bit of castle look


lots of stone fences and walk ways


the captain once again cleaning the rust off our BBQ, we are now covering it with
material to protect it from the salt spray and air


I, in the mean time decided to remove everything out of the bilge and give it a good clean


the captain blew the conch and we enjoyed another
nice day in paradise
