March 23 Anchoring in the everglades

The high winds had us staying in Everglades City for 2 days, as from here there is no safe harbor until you reach the Keys, which were 2 days away.  It was a calm day on the Gulf and we made way for the Little Shark river, which is located in the Everglades National Park.   We stayed offshore because the mosquitos could carry your boat away if you anchored among the mangroves.  Except for a 5 ft tide change, it was calm, with a fabulous sunset (2 pics).

  1. You guys look great! I love keeping up with your adventures. You are such pros now. When do you expect to get up this direction?

    Tall ships will be in Baltimore for the 1812 century celebration in June. Karen and Tom got a moorage, so we will be up there on Moondance. Will you be that far north by then? Hugs, L
