We're spending another night at Mangrove Marina to take care of laundry and get some other basic supplies. I managed to commender a two wheel card to use for the propane tank so that I didn't have to carry it the half mile from the grocery store.
The red Hunter sailboat is our neighbor at Mangrove Marina and they are from Kenosha, Wisconsin. Long story, but Joanie the wife is on the boat while her husband went back to Wisconsin to take care of work that he had.
The other photograph is a picture of the chart that I'm currently using. The asterik or mark on the far left side of the chart is our current position in Community Harbor. I thought maybe this would give you an idea of how close things are together. Each one of the marks are potential ancorages that could be used depending on whether we're north of south of the keys. We're currently north of the keys and there are only a few places that we can cross back and forth because of the height of our mast. For now we'll pretty much be cruising on the north or inside in the Florida Bay area. Tomorrow we plan to head for Shell Key which is a state owned protected area. I guess it has 5 moorings that can be used, but I'm not planning on any being open since there are many boaters looking for the same thing. We'll plan on anchoring and be pleasantly supprised if a mooring is available.
