Wow what a trip!

Well we made it, our Scottish friends said as we head further south it'll just keep getting better and they are right. Unfortunately it stops here. But then think of all the surprises still to come next year when Sue and I do the same trip on Solent Breeze.

The guy at Harbour Town Marina where we docked last night thought I was joking when I said we'd be leaving at the crack of dawn. He didn't even see us leave. Up and at em at 6:00 am underway by 7:00 am, wind was NNE and asap we had the sail up doing 9.3 knots. On the way out an Osprey dove and caught breakfast. It's going to be a good day.

There was a boat at Harbour Town that had a sport fishing boat dry docked at the back of it. I kid you not - they flooded the back end dropped the transom and he'd take off fishing in this three storey fishing boat. We saw at least five crew and there must have been more working in the engine room etc.

Flipper brought the kid with him today - just a quick visit. The water looks more blue/bluer o.k. cleaner then. This is  the Florida of TV and Movies, look at this house.

His driveway is water and thats the runabout you see in front of the main game behind the boat in the foreground

We're passing through Hobe Sound, Burt Reynolds, Greg Norman and Perry Como live here abouts. Catch a falling star................

This is where we're at - third floor from the top. Up there with the Vultures.



Our neibours on the dock, which is designed in Montreal by the way

The previous owner of our boat said you see a better side of the US from the water.

What do you think?

Again no Sunset (what a relief) Jeffs Dad took us out to dinner, sorry. If you go to our position on Google Earth look at the Marina to the North West - the second big boat at the dock is Tiger Woods boat, or was.

I fly home on the 1st December so I guess that's it except to say it's been a great experience with two great guys and I thank you all for watching.
