Titusville Marina - 40 kt winds last night!

 

This is someone's home, not to be taken lightly - sad. Looks mostly okay

Looking at the weather wind pattern, it looked like a mini hurricane complete with an eye. The entire east coast of Florida from Titusville north had high winds. We rocked pretty well but we had fenders out and lots of lines. We were fine and since we had electricity, we were warm and toasty. 

Looks like a boat for storage, no sails

Three boats out in the anchorage area did not fare so well. Two were on moorings and the moorings held fine but their lines to the moorings did not, they chafed through and came to shore. The third one was anchored and something gave way so they joined the crowd ashore too.

Too shallow for that approach!

We will have one more day of high winds before things settle down with temperatures in the 70s again. We are only 1.5 weeks away from our departure north. I reconfirmed our reservation with Hertz for a car and they said all was fine for the pickup of a minivan on Wednesday two weeks from now. 

We will drive to Deltaville and drop the minivan off along the way. We have to return north for Thanksgiving and Christmas before returning south and continuing on to Key West.
