2015-2016 Cruise Complete

June 5, 2016

We are currently docked at Rose Marina in Marco Island, Florida completing our 2015-16 cruise.

The last two weeks have been intense travel, with a one week break at Coconut Grove Sailing Club in Miami.  We covered 444 nautical miles in 8 travel days with two 24+ hour runs.

 For most of the trip we have been dodging unsettled weather typical of this time of year.  We needed to get to a secure dock before the forecast tropical storm 'Colin' hits the west coast of Florida early next week.

Our cruise through the Bahamas was great, see earlier blog entries for more detail.  A map of our travels is available at  2015-2016 Cruise - also available on our blog.

Currently we are resting up and enjoying air conditioning after the hot and sweaty conditions of the last month.  At this moment, Joyce has our dirty clothes 'quarantined' in the aft head (bathroom) - they 'stank'.  Laundry is high on the task list!
