After dropping the hook yesterday in no-name harbor I launched the dinghy (Carly) and Guin, Darrin, Sam, and I rowed to shore. We walked a few miles to a pizza place and had a pie and a few pitchers. With bellies full and smiles we walked to the supermarket and bought fresh veggies for stew. We tend to eat a lot of veggie stew on Splendid. When we got back to the park where Splendid was anchored Guin laughed and chased large iguanas across the grass. After rowing back we all went for a swim with a large dolphin. He kept his distance but after we got out of the water he gave Guin a bit of a dolphin show, she loved it. I was asleep shortly there after and got a good nights sleep : )
I had a little problem with the starter this morning; it just seems a bit rough. I’m going to pull it in Stuart and have it re-built. We left Key Biscayne this morning around 7am, I got a late start.
Unfortunately we have but just a breath of wind from the east. The sun is already strong at 7:30am, and I’m sure it will be a hot one. I’m looking at arriving at
Cheers all.
Sail far and live slowly.
