Sarasota Yacht Club

Our slip neighbors
Van Wezel performing arts center-it looks like a circus tent from the water
Famous statue
Beautiful art in the park

We decided to go out the Venice Inlet and sail along the coast to Sarasota. We had been to the club two years ago on our last trip. They had torn down their old building and had something grand in the works. It is indeed grand. There is nothing casual about this new club. As elegant as it is, I wonder if some of the members wouldn't like to go back to the tent. I guess time always moves on.
We didn't have much of an opportunity to explore last trip due to rain. We didn't have much time this trip, but we crossed the very TALL bridge in search of bread and sight seeing opportunities. We rode along the waterfront on both sides of the bridge then back over the VERY tall bridge to settle in.
