Ready To Go; Almost
The only problem... the tide is out and Shibumi is on the bottom. We have to wait at our dock until 2 o'clock in the afternoon for enough water to depart. At that time of day there will be only three hours of daylight to find a good place to anchor. |

We Are Traveling With Another Boat
We used Don's hand-held depth-sounder to determine that there is over 8 feet of water... so the plan is to wait until high tide this afternoon and move both boats to Admiral's Cove. Tomorrow morning we plan to leave Admiral's Cove early and sail to New Smyrna Beach. We could not find a security guard to discuss our plan with, so we will just do it. |

Time to Cast-Off
Cliff, Cheryl, Allyson and Blair came over to wish us "Bon Voyage". Cliff and Blair handled the dock-lines as Shibumi slipped easily through the shallow water and off into the ICW to join the Sailing Vessel "Dark and Stormy". |
