Scott here. Today we will go from Clewiston to Stuart and finally be at the Atlantic Ocean, although we won’t get close enough to see the Atlantic yet. Our hope is to go to the Pendarvis Cove anchorage. Close to everything in downtown Stuart with a park and dinghy dock. Today we will have three…

Travel Day # 35 stats
Scott here. Pretty darn easy day today, although it didn’t always feel like that! On paper, it looks easy. In real life not so much. As you saw by Rita’s earlier post the morning was beautiful and Jazzy wanted us to see the sunrise. Not even thinking about it last night we took her for…

Travel Day Nov 21, 23 (LaBelle to Clewiston) Travel Day # 35
Scott here. LaBelle was a cute little town. Nice dock at a park for us to take Jazzy for a walk and a coffee shop for Rita to get a cup of joe this morning! Today will be a shorter day. But we will have to deal with three locks (one by choice.) Initial PlanDate:…

Travel Day #34 stats
Scott here. It was a boring day today. It was foggy after we left our anchorage. I knew it was hazy, but it turned into thick fog in no time. FL boaters don’t seem to be the most patient or smart ones out there. They are going way to fast in the fog and you…

Travel day Nov 18, 23 (Palmetto to St. James City) Travel Day #33
Scott here! What a day we had. Super relaxing. Three trips to shore for Jazzy. Rita was able to get her extra “Rita walk” in and a couple small projects were completed. The wind was too strong for me to get under the boat safely, so maybe Sunday afternoon if we get to our anchorage…

Saturday, Nov. 18, 23
The weather looks so much better Sunday and Monday than it does on Saturday, so, we are thinking of just staying in this anchorage for two days. We have good protection from north and northeast winds. Although it is a little rolly it will do. This is our overnight recording of our anchor holding very…

Scott here. We finally left Clearwater. I understand how people visit there and never leave. It is a beautiful area! But, Bahamas, Bahamas, Bahamas!! The weather was perfect for leaving and I am very happy for that. We had about 2′ clearance from the bow of the boat to the pier in front of us.…
