Underway again

(The night before we left)… We had a great stay in Manatee Pocket and are heading south again. We waited until the cold front came through (2 days of strong winds) and now, it should be a pleasant ride with the wind at our backs and favorable waves….
(The next morning 7:30 AM) Well, we left thursday morning and it was COLD but we had a good wind from behind that kept switching from the aft port to the aft starboard most of the day. Fighting with the pole.

I did about a dozen sail changes switching the pole from one side to the other and putting up sails or taking down sails and as the wind dropped off throughout the day. We were finally down to 2 kts of speed just before the Palm Beach Harbor entrance when the dolfins came to visit. It was a nice day to be sailing.
