We arrived just south of Chub Cay in the early afternoon.  We saw some boats on the south eastern side of the island but were planning to stay on the northern side of the island.  After cutting through a narrow passage against a strong current, a rock cliff on one side and a reef on the other, we noticed that the water was quite rough.  So, we headed back through the cut and anchored on the side we first approached.  Because the wind was blowing from an unusual direction, the coast was calmer than normal (we believe).  Several other boats anchored there as well.
