Safe in our boat slip At Last !

March 22, 2017  3.0 Colorado Cat Voyage Date

Three weeks on the water and we haven't thrown either one of us off the boat.

Today was another day of the ultra  mega yachts and houses, and I am sure the rich and famous.  We went through Palm Beach, West palm Beach, Lake Worth and Jupiter.  Along the way we chugged by an ultra mega yacht boat show. OMG  One of the yachts was the Lady Kathryn V, a 200+ foot  and $60 million dollar price tag.  The tenders were as long as  Jim's fishing boat.
It took 3 cities to accommodate all the mega yachts in the show.  Some were still being delivered and wrapped in shrink wrap.  We went by a freighter that had the mega yachts on the top of the ship as their cargo.  That ship was from  Amsterdam.

Around Peanut Island the boats were running around everywhere along with the paddle boards, swimmers,
tiki hut boats, some with slides, and even a drive up bar.

In the afternoon we did run into slight problem.  We were off to another yacht club for the night and we got lost in the St, Lucie River channel.  We had a very calm and patience dock master to walk us into the dock.  Thank goodness we made it before dark.  We are planning to spend a couple of nights here as of course bad weather is rolling in.  What is a week without  a bad northern wind? We wanted adventure and we got it.
