Ft. Lauderdale to Bimini



We left this morning at 7:00 a.m. The seas were much calmer than yesterday & the day before.

On Thursday we motored from Palm Beach to Ft. Lauderdale. We went outside in the Atlantic; the winds were strong and the seas were 4 to 6 ft, so it was an uncomfortable ride, but warm and sunny.

We got into Ft. Lauderale around 4:00, and Tony & Lynn came over to the boat from their nearby hotel. (See pic; John is still in grubby clothes.) We all went to a nearby restaurant called Coconuts, which was very good.

Yesterday we did laundry, and maintenance on the boat. It was too windy and rough for a crossing to the Bahamas, so we waited until today.

So now we're finally off on our adventure!
