Thursday, Nov 20, The Crossing

It is 3:00 p.m. on Thursday and Jeff and I just docked the boat in front of a restaurant on Long Boat Key, FL. We began this portion of our trip yesterday at 2.00 p.m. This was the leg of the trip where we crossed a rather large section of the Gulf (164 miles), plus the 30 miles of getting to the starting point of Carrabelle, FL plus travelling an additional 25 miles to an overnight dockage once we reached the end point of our crossing at Clearwater, FL. During the night crossing we each grabbed about two hours of sleep, so this will be just a short update since y'all haven't heard anything from us since Monday night.

I will post a more detailed report on the last three exciting days after we get a really good night's sleep. Our goal is to pull into Burnt Store Marina tomorrow afternoon after travelling just two days short of five weeks.
