Actually after taking that photo I realized that I had not turned on DST on that chart plotter - so it should have read 9:47! Fixed now!

But not the answer. There is a clue in the photo!

From that position at that heading it looks like you ran into Hog Cay? I hope you changed course soon enough.

RT got it, I think. What's that SOS indicator, and are you transmitting it, or receiving it from someone else?

Nope, that's an icon that is always available on the touch screen.

Passed one on the way into Thompson's Harbour yesterday, will be visiting Deans while we are here. Which, BTW, is the second deepest blue hole in the world after one in Japan.

We were shocked to find that there wasn't a big line in the water or across the sky!

I do believe there is a stone tower on the nearby Tropic of Cancer Beach that signifies the point though.
