From the last update...... Well, the wind didn't
swing as forecasted. It stayed right from the north and kicked up a nasty chop
against the Gulf Stream flow. As we couldn't sail and it was too uncomfortable
to just drift with the current, we decided to divert to Lake Worth. Made it in
before sunset and had a pleasant night at anchor.
Left again at first light this morning and are
having a very gentle sail in SE winds (what it should have been yesterday) and
flat seas, up the Florida coast. Destination today is Ft Pierce. From there we
will head up the "ditch" (ICW) towards Vero Beach for a few days
R&R.
Best Wishes,
