With some skinny waters behind us now we have just a couple more to get through. Traveling at low tide we begin the last of the trek north to wait for the crossing to The Bahamas. The day is sunny and warm with temps hovering around 24C. Scott is baking in the catains chair as the sun rises in the east. No complaints though. We are enjoying the nice temps after the crazy winds, rain and the low temps in Marathon, The Keys. We are happy to be leaving them behind.

Passing Key Largo and multiple lobster pots we push on at 8 knots. We have a 5 hour run to Biscayne Bay, just south of Miami. The green waters of the Keys follows us as we travel. Lunch of quick sandwiches in fairly calm waters of the Intracoastal Waterway make for a great travel day. Some dolphins decided to join us and jump in our wake.

Heather and joe braved the 20C water with quick splash in the bay. We watched the sunset on the back deck with warm temps. Scott checked again on the weather for crossing the Atlantic to Bimini, Bahamas. We are a go for travel. Last check for boat engines and systems and they’re a go as well. We are ready for an early sunrise leave time. All are excited for a new adventure. See you on “the other side”.
