Titusville - The wind is starting to blow

Titusville has moorings too - but they are rather exposed

The weather has changed. A cold front has passed through triggering rain and strong winds out of the north. Of course, all is relative - our cold front brings temperatures down into the 50s at night but with highs in the 60s and 70s. We'll manage. 

Palm trees survive by yielding to the wind - all the branches stream back, 
allowing the wind to pass without damage to the tree. Hoolie helps to keep 
the tree healthy!

The weather will be variable over the next few days so we decided to stick around Titusville until Saturday morning when we'll restart our journey south. In planning ahead, we reserved a slip at Las Olas for Tuesday night at $2.50/ft. The price next door at Bahia Mar but $4/ft! Hopefully, we can make the jump to Miami outside on Wednesday to Marina Stadium. I confirmed that they do not offer moorings anymore. The new owners didn't want to manage them and the town didn't either so they were eliminated. 

Today's big event was getting the genset to work. The latest versions have multiple sensors all over the engine to prevent possible damage from any number of scenarios. In the latest case, the "seawater pressure sensor" was defective, shutting down the genset when nothing was wrong. I merely unplugged the sensor and the genset ran fine. I'll have to watch it more closely for a clogged intake but it works! It's nice to have a genset on a cold morning to warm up the cabin.
