Sunrise Choctawhatchee Bay 12/6/2020 |
After a calm, restful night in Choctawhatchee Bay, the
anchor was pulled and we were underway by 7:20am along with Hearken. A little later start than usual but it was
nice to see the sunrise while not underway – ha, ha…

Sailboat ashore but secured |
This particular stretch of the Florida Panhandle has been
hammered with hurricanes and unnamed storms for several years. The progress of rebuilding and recovery is
evident. We have such great memories of
our various stops over the years but this year is different. The travel goal was to reach the White City
Florida public boat dock today – before dark, of course. So with 71 miles ahead
of us and the expected tidal current against us for at least part of the day and
the time zone change…there was no time to stop and smell the roses.

It's Sunday but this crew continues to deliver materials |

ICW connects Choctawhatchee to West Bay (Grand Lagoon) |

West Bay (Grand Lagoon) feeds into St. Andrews Bay |

St. Andrews Bay peels into East Bay |

East Bay brings back the ICW |
It was nearing dark, starting to rain a little & we had to be a little creative with tying the boat safely...so no pics of a sunset (or the boat). But as you can see the water was like glass even when the clouds
rolled in. We have been so bless with
beautiful cruising weather. As tomorrow
dawns we will slip off the lines from the free dock and hopefully reach C
Quarters Marina in Carrabelle FL.
Stay healthy and God Bless
Beautiful photos. Just beautiful
