We made it in to Kennedy Point Marina and yacht club- which loosely translates to old marina that has seen better days! But it's the cheapest we have stayed at and has water and electricity. It's going to be a cold blowy so we decided that another marina was worth it to be secure and warm.
We made it down from Daytona today. It was windy but it was generally on our tail. We made 8 knots at one point with just the jib. Getting in to the marina was hairy. 20 knot wind on our beam, and only 6 ft of water at best. Then a steep 90 turn into a slip - very thankful for the bow thruster, and the muddy bottom worked as a brake! Yes, we saw 4.8 ft at the slip. But we are secure and warm, and I don't need to think about the depth until we leave tomorrow. Not quite sure how we will get out, unless there is a bit more water.
We will head south tomorrow but expecting a short day as we need to wait for a package to be delivered
More later!
