Izzy has that look again. “Did I just see a dead pig float by?” It wasn’t a dead pig but there was a coconut bobbing in the current as the tide slowly sweeps through the anchorage.
We had a rainy day, all-day bands of rain crossed overhead constantly changing the quality of the light and robbing us of much needed solar energy. By the end of the day we would have to fire up the generator and hope that the battery charger works.

The new charger is on its way to our friends’ house in Surfside, FL. If packages for Escape Velocity start showing up at your address, you can expect us to make an appearance in the near future. You have been warned.

As I said, it rained on and off all day which tends to limit on-shore activities. It’s not that you can’t dinghy into the dinghy dock but you will get wet. The bikes are also less fun in the rain but at the end of the day, when the reward is a double rainbow over Stuart, it’s hard to complain.


Looks like it’s our last day in Stuart.

    So the rainbow was lucky! You are leaving. Good luck getting ready.

  2. In every picture I’ve ever seen of Jack, he looks like the cat that ate the canary. Tell the truth, Marce, is he always that happy? We land lubbers want to believe that life on the water is perfect, but can it really be that good? 🙂

    Hello, Marce. Is that True Colors in the center of the second photo? I’ve been wanting a Manta 42 for several years, but it looks like I’m going to have to wait another 15 or so years before retirement hits. I truly enjoy keeping up with your blog – good or not so good. Send shipments to me anytime; you two, and Izzy, are always welcome!

We love to hear from you!
