NEWS - We are on a Mooring Ball

Yesterday while we drove south from Sarasota to Marathon, I got the call from the Marina.  "You can move your boat to a Mooring Ball."  So today in huge strong gusty winds we backed up and very gracefully motored out backwards without hitting any of the million dollar yachts in the marina.

BUT i DID break the other running light.  Yep, drug my big nose on a massive concrete pole and ....  POP/Crunch/Crack/Oh - DAMN - IT!!!!    i am now as blind as Helen Keller.  I'll have to replace both bow running lights before i sail at night again.

W1 in Boot Key Harbor, the dark ship.  That's Us.      xoxox Happy New Year!       -Skip
