Holy Mackerel
Flying the colors

Big shrimper in the gulf
We started out the day with plans to anchor about 25 miles south of here but the sailing was so great we just kept going. First we adjusted our goal from Pass-a-Grille pass to John's pass to finally Clearwater Pass. We were able to fly the spinnaker and run the engine very little. It feels good to be a sailboat again instead of having to break in the engine! David even caught a nice Spanish mackerel for supper. The YC had a spot so in we came. We met some nice folks at the outside bar and gave one couple a tour of the boat. Theirs is a similar size and they wanted some ideas of getting her ready for cruising. We plan to head up the waterway towards Tarpon Springs. We have reservations at the club there but need to go in on a high tide. This week that happens in the morning so we'll be close by and hopefully make it in without the assist of Towboat US.
