Heading south

Jan-23-2016

It’s been a month+ since we dropped anchor in Stuart Fl. and I sent Anna off to Michigan to attend her brother’s passing. During that time, I’ve been a bachelor doing many boat projects and watching way too many movies at night. She’s flying back to the boat coming into Fort Lauderdale in a few days so I have to sail the Goose 100 mile south to pick her up…see ya there!

All went well, it took 2 days of travel to reach Lake Silvia only to have a STRONG cold front come blasting through on the day of Anna arrival. 30 mile per hour winds with gusts into the 40's roared thru the anchorage. With the help of a large yacht (to help get her off from the dock) she is safely back on board, rested and ready to head south to the Keys. Now if only the winds will drop off a bit.
