We left No Name Harbour on January 4 direction Key Largo. No Name Harbour is situated in Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park, sorry but my pictures didn't turn out. We are taking Biscayne Channel into Hawk Channel because of our 5'4'' draft, we can't go by the ICW. We were able to put up the sails all day, direction Key Largo, what a nice day. The water is so clear and turquoise, even at 11'' I could see the bottom. The temperature today was in the 80's...

Portugese Man-of-War, dangerous little creature, he just passed our boat!

Hawk Channel, direction Marathon, FL
January 5, sailed again today, we did record time to get from Key Largo to Marathon, averaged 6.5 knots. Just as we were arriving near Marathon, the US Customs and Border Protection boat stopped us, asked us a few questions and that was it. I guess they found us too old to cause any danger :-)
Marathon City Marina has a total of 236 mooring balls. Incredible. A very nice mooring field, 20$ with all the utilities one needs, showers...great after 5 days without one and a huge laundry room.

We will be staying here for a few days, there is another cold front coming our way with high winds.
So that is it for now, A+
