Our last few days on Pine Island and out shopping and for dinner with Jack and Suzie

Over at Jack and Suzie's where Stuart is doing the Panamanian thing and kayaking in Jack and Suzie's pond, which only has about 2 ft of water in it due to the drought

Jack giving instructions

Now it's time to play on the lawn mower!

Jack gets bored and starts up the bar b

Right, we are now on our way out through the Sanabel Pass

Getting ready for another night at sea

Oh no, the cat is going to eat the sun!?

Passing under the 7 Mile Bridge at Marathon in the Keys the next day

All the crazy swirls of weed in the water didn't help and we had to keep cutting the engine so Stuart could clean out the filters as they were full of the stuff

7 Mile Bridge again

and we are out on the East Coast of Florida now

Stopping over in Palm Beach for a night

and these are the super expensive houses you get to buy looking out over the power station, although I don't expect that the owners really mind seeing as no one was there! It's just a 2nd, 3rd, 4th maybe 5th, home?


Off to the extremely friendly marina/boat builders to get fuel and water

and we are just going to moor up next to this big monster!

You can't really see how big these boats are until you are up next to them

There is no gambling allowed in Palm Beach but there is a 3 mile off shore loop hole, so all the casinos are boats that pick people up then anchor 3 miles off shore!

We should have got a picture the day before this whole place was crawling with jet ski's, sailing and power boats

Catching a Dorado underway, we then ate fish solidly for the next 5 days!

Whey hey! Look at us we are doing 9.6 knots!

Coming in to the Chesapeake after 5 days at sea, I'm not too confident about the large boat coming up behind to over take us


The light house just before we turned into Hampton Roads to anchor
