Photo Description

Cat Cay refers to two islands in the Bahamas, North Cat Cay and South Cat Cay which is uninhabited. North Cat Cay was purchased in 1931 by Louis Wasey as a private island and is presently (2013) owned by members of the Cat Cay Yacht Club. After converting the island to a private club, Wasey built a nine-hole golf course now known as Windsor Downs. The course occupies the center of the island and is named for the Duke of Windsor, who was the Governor of the Bahamas during World War II. The golf course, pictured, features sand traps, a lake, grassy fields, and is planted with many palm trees. Slide labeled Cat Cay, Mar '46.
