We went to dinner last night at Green Turtle Marina (yes we’re in a marina) with friends Dirk and Nancy on S/V Renegade http://www.svrenegade.blogspot.com/ , we had a fantastic time. The marina is nice, the food (and drinks) were great, and of course it is always nice to be with friends.
Anyway, here are more pictures of our crossing.

We had our first equipment failure, fortunately it was a small one. Our fresh air intake blower for the engine broke. I had to swap it out the next morning, not fun but not too bad either:
When we got ready to lift anchor we could really see the clarity of the water:
We have more pictures so we will post again before we leave. Hopefully we’re going spear fishing today! Weather permitting…
As always you can check our location on the map page. Our last location should be the little pin in the center of the map when you first open the page.
