An angry cold-front rolled over the area Saturday night. Strong winds and persistant tidal currents kept the boats anchored east of Norman's Cay very active on our anchor rodes. We decided to stay aboard ship on Sunday and read. That was a good choice, because just after mid-day a secondary cold-front rode the area. This one was the big brother of the front from the night before. Gale force winds whipped through the anchorage. Needless to say, the ride at anchor was uncomfortable at times. The conflicting influence of strong winds and strong tides rocked and rolled the ships like leaves clinging to a tree on a stormy day. The upper mass (top-sides) of the ships were answering to the wind, but the keels were being directed by the heavy current in the water. The wind was mighty; but the current won. Two boats had their anchors come loose and started dragging across the anchorage. The crews of both ships alertly recovered and were able to reset their anchors. We were all thankful that this happened during daylight hours when it is easy to see what is happening.
