Manjack Key via Dink

Today was probably the farthest we have gone with the dink on the sea of abaco. The wind was light and the sun was out so we went for it. We left Green Turtle Cay (Bluff House) and shot out towards Manjack Cay. Note locals call this Nunjack.
When we got out there the tide was low. It was so low that even with the dink we could not get out between Crab and Nunjack Cays towards the ocean. We were stuck in the weeds a couple of times. It was fun to watch a couple with their children slog through it to get to the deeper water. They offered to haul us through since all we had were flip flops and they had sneakers but I told them not to worry about it. Heck, let them and their kids walk on some beaches no one else has been on in a while right? So we backed out and dinked along to the south side of Crab Cay where there is a great beach. We pulled up and ate our lunch and were relaxing when all of a sudden Deb says hey, somethings coming towards us! There was a sense of urgency in her voice. Looking over I see what caught her eye and realise yes, it's a pig! No banjo music, just a pig.
So we entertained this a while after jumping into the dink and moving out into a little deeper water. Yes, I oink'd at it and it responded by coming closer. I think it was a female. Maybe that had something to do with it? That doesn't say much does it?
So from here we moved on to Fiddle Cay where we beached the dink again and chased a ray around on the sand bar. There was a swing hanging from a tree that overhung the water but my butt was too heavy for it so we left it alone for the kids.
Since time had passed we decided to go back around Crab Cay and head for the area which opened up to the Atlantic. A couple of hours had passed and the tide came in so we were able to make it out to the opening we originally tried for. There were plenty of young Baracuda and several Nurse sharks. Perhaps a young hammerhead as well. Trigger fish and starfish were all over the place as were the rays. It was fun to walk along the beach and have the nurse sharks coming right at us. All we had to do was hold still and watch.
We actually made it in between the two cays all the way out to the Atlantic but we decided to leave the dink just inside the inlet. It was quite small and lined with jagged rocks the likes of which can tear into an inflatable dink easily. But that was not the worst of it. Once outside if one wanted to beach a dink one had to dodge all of this sharp rocky shorline for a couple of yards of sand.
Being several miles away from anything of substance we elected to leave the dink inside the inlet and walk around a ways.
It was then getting late in the afternoon so we beat it back to Green Turtle in time for the Parrots to give us the evening fly over with all of their sqauking. While they sound rather abrasive, it was still refreshing to the ear none the less.
I've updated the GPS track data but with the slow internet response we are paying 80 bucks for 2 weeks, I have no photos yet. But they'll get there.
