We are doing the final preparations to set sail. We hope to leave either this Wednesday or Thursday. We have a good weather window for sailing east and then southeast. We first plan to do an overnight sail from Mobile to Panama City, Florida. From there we will do a two overnight sail to the Tampa area. Will most likely enter the ICW through the Clear Water inlet. From there we will take a more leisurely approach to getting down to Marathon.
We are having a friend from Texas, Dale Bowman, join us for the sail to Marathon. Dale is a great boat handler and has sailed the Pacific coast and also across the Pacific from Chile to Tonga. Dale lives on his boat on Lake Texoma at the Cedar Mills Marina. We will also be picking up another friend from Texas, David Dunagan, in Clear Water. He will sail with us to Marathon also. David was our slip neighbor at Cedar Mills and is the owner of a Hunter 380, Molly Jean.
