Woke up this morning & went to get on the dinghy to take hadley mae to shore and we had a suprise visitor. Scared the bejeezus out of me as he swam right up to my leg as i was stepping in. He hung around all morning- the yachts behind us were chumming the water all night so i’m sure he’s used to getting a free meal here often. We left for another long day south- had some light rain for about 30 mins and that was it. Got to Rat Cay right before sunset and anchored up- it was glassy we were sitting on chain until we went to bed. We were awakened around 2 am by howling wind and the boat swinging . Had some unpredicted 30+ kt winds & lightning storm kick through. Had a cute little beach but parts were very rocky to get to shore while others sandy and easily accessible.
