Winds shifted and incoming storm means our protected bay is not longer going to be protected. Departed for Crooked Islands for better shelter. Winds pushed us towards the shallows of Crooked Island and we had to push directly into the waves to avoid a more dangerous situation. Probably the scariest sail we've had so far. Arrived at anchorage during the night, but plenty of light with the full moon to set the anchor. Very rolly spot, but better protected than where we left.
