Incredible

Day #23: We're off before dawn and what a beautiful dawn it was. It's only a short run to Stuart, FL, but there's much to do before we sleep: take a mooring; dinghy ashore; rent a car; drive 90 miles to Ft. Lauderdale; inspect a 55' Bering that a friend of the Smiths is thinking of buying; poke around Sailorman (a great used boat-junk superstore); walk three miles on the beach; eat dinner in an Italian Bistro; drive another 90 miles back to Stuart; drop the rental car off; walk 1-1/2 miles back to the boat; and, hit the sack around midnight. Whew!

A short 26nm day brings our total to 996nm. On Sunset Marina's mooring #5 in Stuart, FL. DBH.
