To Cocoa Beach


Left the dock at 0725 for the 64 miles run to Cocoa Beach.  It started quite sunny but quickly deteriorated into a marine-layer covered cool day.  Most of the run was on wide-open waters with a narrow Intra-Coastal channel which we had to stay in.


Loads of wildlife.  Birds everywhere, of course, but I did see my first Manatee in amongst a million dolphins.

These guys had an interesting combination flag:


Not sure what to make of this.  An experiment gone wrong?  There is a YouTube video here.


This bridge is the rail link to Cape Canaveral.


This is the little tug that could.  After it got abeam our boat we could see that the big one was pushing the little one!


We are in a Cocoa Beach marina for the night and will head out to Vero Beach tomorrow.  The goal is to be in Bradenton by December 7th or 8th.
