We slipped our mooring at 6:45 on Friday morning and headed nearly due North to the Little Shark River in the Everglades. It was one fine beam reach sail with speeds in excess of 7 knots several times. The anchorage in the Shark river was quiet and dark with a star filled sky.
Today the wind was down and we motored over 9.5 hours in the Gulf of Mexico to arrive in Smokehouse Bay interior to Marco Island. It's a remarkable change in scenery here - condos and waterfront homes. It looks like we will be weathered in here in Marco until Tuesday as yet another cold front drops down on Florida.
