Titusville - Calm before the storm

The flowers are starting to bloom!

 You would never know a storm was on the way. It was a beautiful day with temps in the 70s and not a lot of wind. I took on water and did a few odds and ends but we're getting impatient to move. We have to sit out Sunday with the front coming through but after that, we're off to Vero Beach. I called ahead to be sure there would be a place for us and was told that they are rafting so it's no problem. 

You see these signs all over Titusville

The winds are predicted to be out of the northwest, veering, to the west during the afternoon which is a good direction for going south given that the ICW hugs the western shore most of the way south. It's also a good direction for the marina since it blows off land. A northeast wind is the worst, it blows waves directly into the marina through the opening. 

Sunday will be a day on the boat. It's predicted to rain all day long, starting at 7:00 am with high winds as the front moves through the area, then we're out of here!
