Depart Tue AM for Panama City, FL

OK, it's getting late.  So i'm going to make this quick and give you the short version.  I accidentally erased all my Waypoints off the Chartplotter this morning.  (it's like the dog ate my homework)  All my hours of careful preparation were taken away - gone.  I didnt have the 'bread crumb trail to follow to find Panama City.'  So i spent all day, off and on, working on restoring my work.  I finally figured it out and fixed it at 8pm.  Now i've eaten a sandwich and am dog tired.  (same dog that ate the homework)

I did the prep work to depart in the morning.  So the plan is still on for coffee and then hit it.

Here's the weather for tomorrow in Panama City.  Nice!  I am going to attempt to move every day for the next three days.  Tuesday sail to Panama.  Wednesday sail down the coast to St. Jo.  Thursday go inside the ICW to Apalachicola.  This is quite a bit different than sitting still for two weeks.  Let's see how i do.

My worry now is the big unknown of the ICW.  see all the twists and turns of the Intercoastal Waterway on this closeup chart.

If the engine gives me trouble i'll have less time to react.  This is a little unnerving.  (Fear of the unknown)  But i'm anxious to get moving and start working my way down the Florida coast.

For those of you starting the game late, here is the link to follow along.  http://share.findmespot.com/shared/faces/viewspots.jsp?glId=0mPbH03djypXIuLxPkf2HPYWOR691Gn4b

All is well.  -Capn Skip
