Fort Pierce, Palm Beach....
Left St.Augustine in some really breezy and choppy conditions... some pretty big waves heading out of the inlet. Motor sailed through the night all the way to Cape Canaveral. We had intended to stay in Cape Canaveral and maybe do the NASA gig, but as it turns out, there is really no cruiser ports / anchorages in that vicinity. So we went into the ICW instead, and made a pit stop in Cocoa for some supplies. After this stop, the ICW opened up wide, the sun came out, the breeze picked up out of the east, we spent the afternoon doing some fun sailing within the ICW! Fun sailing while listening to a few choice CD's was just what I needed to get my mind off the whole Rico bit. We anchored in Fort Pierce, and took a dingy ride into the town marina. Showers and wi-fi... we stuck around the Tiki Bar cuz it was jammin' at happy hour, and I met a few fun locals. Back to the boat for gourmet guacamole burgers. That brings us to today.... today was a FUN DAY OF SAILING. It was warm with a stiff breeze out of the South East, and we just sailed south about a mile off the beach... all the way to Palm Beach which is where we sit as I type this. We had some heavy conversation while sailing today; topics included ego vs spirituality, sobriety, relationships... deep life stuff. That was cool. We really do seem to be getting along well and getting to know each other a little better every day. It's amazing that three different dudes with different backgrounds and different mojos can coexist in a 38ft long fiberglass tube and not kill each other. Good communication and open-mindedness has kept things flowing smoothly so far.....
Thank you Mike Ternosky for the Mercedes-Benz tour of West Palm Beach. Playground of the rediculously wealthy.
