  • Day 65 (6/25/26) – Bahia Mar Marina to Palm Harbor Marina

    Day 65 (6/25/26) – Bahia Mar Marina to Palm Harbor Marina

    We had a lovely cruise on the AICW today. Highlights included luxurious yachts, mega mansions, lots of draw bridges, and plenty of minimum/no wake zones. We also discovered that we passed “Billionaire’s Row” as we approached the marina. Take a look at the rich and famous people that call Palm Beach home! We’re safely docked…

    Day 64 (6/24/26) – Layover in Ft. Lauderdale

    We had a great layover in Ft. Lauderdale, a vibrant, seaside town with great views and lots of great restaurants. We completed boat maintenance items, refreshed our provisions, and I got a much needed haircut! The highlight of our stop was getting together with Bo and Inny Laterveer. We met this lovely couple on the…

    Day 61 (6/22/26) – Key Biscayne Yacht Club to Bahia Mar Marina (Ft. Lauderdale)

    Another open water day, this time in the Atlantic!! It was a much better experience than the previous open water leg in the Gulf. Calm winds and gentle swells were the theme for the day. The water was much deeper with a beautiful blue hue. We’ll be here a few days resting and provisioning. Until…

    Day 60 (6/21/26) – Anchorage Resort to Key Biscayne Yacht Club

    Happy Father’s Day! A quick shoutout to my fabulous dad Miguel, who left us way too soon. He inspired me in so many ways. I love you dearly and will miss you always. We had a lovely cruise today from Key Largo to Key Biscayne. Biscayne Bay was filled with dolphins and we had sunny…

    Day 59 (6/20/26) – Plantation Yacht Harbor Marina to Anchorage Resort (Key Largo)

    A short cruise today in the Upper Keys through beautiful mangrove forests. Weekend boat traffic was very heavy all day, but for the most part everyone was well behaved. The ICW was well marked and we used previous tracks provided by good friends Tim and Patricia. We’re safely anchored in the ICW for the night…

    Day 58 (6/19/26) – Marlin Bay Marina to Plantation Yacht Harbor Marina (Islamorada)

    We’re back on the ICW! We had a lovely cruise to Islamorada today. The waters here are spectacular. They are very clear with a sandy/grassy bottom, with occasional patches of seaweed. We did have some shallow areas to navigate, but they were very well marked. We will continue our travels up the coast in the…

    Day 57 (6/18/26) – Marco Island Yacht Club to Marlin Bay Resort and Marina (Marathon Key)

    Today was truly a red letter day! We traveled on open water (Gulf of Mexico, not ICW) for 104.6 miles in a little under 11 hours, a personal best for me. The seas started out calm, but by 9 am, we were riding a bucking bronco! Picture chairs going airborne on the fly bridge. We…

    Day 56 (6/17/26) – Gulf Harbour Marina to Marco Island Yacht Club

    We’re baaaaaaack! After 3 months of traveling (including 5 weeks in Australia), family visits, house hurricane prep, and boat repairs, we’re back on the Biscuit with a slight change of plans. Due to low water levels in Lake Okeechobee, we’re taking the scenic route through the middle and upper Florida Keys to access the East…

    Day 55 (3/3/26) – Layover in Fort Myers

    The last couple of days were spent exploring Sanibel and Captiva Islands. Captiva was our summer vacation destination for over 20 years. We started visiting in the mid-nineties when Angie, who’ll be 32 this month, was still in diapers! We typically shared a large home with our friends Gary and Gwynne from Portland, Oregon. How…

    Day 52 (2/28/26) – Cayo Costa Anchorage to Gulf Harbour Marina (Fort Myers)

    After the tense fog bank encounter, we met with the Saturday boating crowds around Sanibel and Fort Myers. This is high season in south Florida so the crowds are pretty thick. There are fishing boats, pontoon boats, and go fast boats, all trying to share the same narrow waterway. Never a dull moment! Since we…
