Finally on the boat here in Ft. Lauderdale...

OK, here we had been trying to get out of the slip since 8am this morning. Started on a Beneteau 393 due to a bad starter solenoid relay on our cat. It rained very very heavy with frequent lightning this morning here in Ft Lauderdale from 0830 to about 1145. The weather started clearing up and we thought our cat would be ready, but it did not get released from the mechanic until 1600 today..too late to provisionj and leave out for south Miami. So, night two in the marina...We are to to leave the slip at 0800 in order to catch the bridge openings right. We are on a Lagoon 410. I look forward to heading out. The winds are not forcast to amount to a whole lot, so we might end up running under power...Bummer. Oh well, all goes well and I say hello to all out there....
