Nice condos at Loggerhead Marina at Vero Beach, $235/night is the cheapest overnight stay in a condo |
Our plan is to stage for a passage going out St Lucie Friday morning and coming back in at Lake Worth. We saw the Jensen Beach mooring field as a good staging point since it’s only 5 NM from St Lucie. The forecast is for 5 to 10 kts of wind out of th west and 2 ft rollers out of the northeast. With that forecast, we’re good to go on Friday morning.
There have been several boats going out the St Lucie inlet over the past week and none reported less than 10 ft of water in a well marked channel. The trip down the coast is only 21 NM and we have a slip reserved at day’s end.
A view of the bridge at Jensen Beach. The bridge provides good protetion from the north but the wind is from the south tonight although it’s only at 7 kts. |
After that, we have to decide where we plan on winding up Saturday. The weekend is not a good day to travel the ICW down to Miami but we have little choice. Once in Miami, we’ will hang out at Marine Stadium and wait for good weather for the run to Key West. At least we’ve regained warm weather with highs in the 70s now.
