For boaters.
What a boat needs to know before coming in to Little Farmer’s Cay. Where we are certain, it says so. Where we are not, it says that too.
Ashore, honestly.
Nine things cruisers ask about. Two we can answer outright, one comes from the cruising guides, and the rest are still questions — tap any of them and it sends Terry that exact question.
- RadioYesVHF Channel 16, call sign “Ocean Cabin”. The surest way to reach us.
- MooringsPer the guidesCruising guides list Ocean Cabin as renting moorings. How many, what size and what they hold is Terry’s to confirm — send a request below and he answers with what is free.
- Dinghy landingAsk usGuests do come ashore by dinghy. Where to land it, and at what state of tide, is worth asking before you set off.
- WaterAsk usWhether RO water can be taken on at the cay, and where, is not confirmed here yet.
- FuelAsk usDiesel and petrol availability on the cay is not confirmed here yet. Do not plan a fuel stop on this page.
- RubbishAsk usWhere a boat can land its rubbish, and whether there is a charge, is not confirmed here yet.
- LaundryAsk usWhether laundry can be done on the cay is not confirmed here yet.
- Wifi and phone signalAsk usCoverage at anchor is not something we can promise. If you cannot get a message out, the radio always works.
- Food and the barYesA scratch kitchen. Lunch needs two hours’ notice and dinner needs three, so send your order before you launch the dinghy.
Terry — this part is yours
6 rows are still questions.
Nobody has confirmed them, so nobody has answered them here. Tell us which are a yes, which are a no and where each one happens, and each row turns into a straight answer instead of a question a cruiser has to ask.

Transportation facilitating
Prices move with the mail boat, so ask. Message Terry on WhatsApp and he will tell you what is in.
Request a mooring.
Tell us the boat, how deep she sits and when you are arriving, and this packages it into a WhatsApp message you send yourself. Nothing is booked and nothing is stored here — Terry replies with what is free and what it costs.
Ocean Cabin is listed in the cruising guides as renting moorings. How many there are and what they hold is Terry’s to confirm, so treat a mooring as arranged only once he has said so.
Send the details ahead
If all else fails, use the radio.
