Today the crew; Cousin Rick and Charles Anglin, are flying home to DFW from Fort Lauderdale. I rented a vehicle from Avis and am driving them up from Marathon and will return tomorrow with my car from Fort Pierce. Prodigal is side tied to a sea wall behind the Skipjack Resort while I wait for a mooring ball at the city marina. *The Skipjack is very expensive for me, but I need a safe place to leave Prodigal while I'm away from the boat. With plans to do some work for ETS again this year, I'll need to have her tied to a marina or mooring ball when I'm away.
Prices: mooring ball $350, marina dock $1,500 per month. So the soonest I can get to a mooring ball the better.
Safe in Marathon, Skip
Florida and travels.

Thursday Jan 9th - Atlantic Ocean
We are out at sea doing 7.3 knots downwind toward Marathon. The wind clocked around during the night from a cool north breeze to a mighty howling 30+ knot wind straight out of the East. Motorsailing to Marathon -straight West - with just a tiny scrap of jib out we'll make good time and have an "adventurous sail."
