First day on board!


Victoria takes her first nap on board!

Victoria the navigator!


The girls chillin'

We got on board Monday night and slept on board.
We stayed at the dock for the night, plugged in with the AC running :)
We got up at 6:30 to start our day.
We left the dock around 9:30 and headed down the river. The weather is gorgeous!
There was very little boat traffic on the river, so we were able to just relax.
We headed up to Cabbage Key and Useppa Island to anchor for the night.
Dan took the girls and Danny for a dinghy ride for potty break.
Victoria really seemed to enjoy herself, she loves the wind in her face!
We all sat in the cockpit until the bugs came out and we had to retreat below.
It was pretty warm all day and we were hoping it would cool down.
We started up the generator and fired up the AC units! heaven!!
Till an hour later when the breakers all popped!
Dan took a little bit and then figured out the AC strainers were plugged with seaweed. He cleaned them out and the system started up again.
Worked great for about an hour then it happened again. It is just too shallow here, with too much yuck in the water :( We had to give up the AC for the night.
We opened up all the hatches and had a pretty good breeze rolling through.
We finally fell asleep at 9:30.
