This is the lighthouse at the west entrance to Nassau Harbor channel
Paradise Island lies to the north of the channel and is the home of the Atlantis resort.
We were berthed at the Nassau Yacht Haven. Crime in Nassau is prevalent and all of the businesses are locked with security even during business hours. This is Ricardo, one of the security guards on the docks at night. We shared conversation and coffee (beer) with them discreetly.
After Mason had left I moved the boat to a better slip situation on a dock with a Canadian charter company. They are French speaking from Lake Champlain and winter charter from this area. I met Shawn on the left down here with his sister on one of two boats his parents have here to charter. They had only arrived days before us and were geared to play. Spent one evening with them and discovered I could not keep pace but Claire could and did. 
Claire has endeared the Canadians and is not interested in ending her adventure. She has found quarters on one of their boats and will stay with expectations of a compensated position cleaning boats. I will take the boat back to Florida solo. This was to be my last night here. My weather window opened today after storms the past two days. The boat will slip away at 6:00am tomorrow.
