It's 7am, the sun is beginning to rise over the palm trees while we cast off our dock lines and head out of the marina. As we go through the channel markers on this clear cloudless day 2 dolphins are swimming alongside Dream Chaser (our boat) I always consider dolphins a sign of good luck. The water is slightly choppy, but we are crossing Charlotte Harbor fairly alone, except for a few fishermen. We reach Boca Grande Pass and head out in the Gulf of Mexico then turn left to run down the Gulf Coast headed for Marco Island. Beautiful weather, sunny and warm. We pull into Marco Island Yacht Club about 11:30am secured the docklines and washed the salt spray off the boat. A quick lunch and we are off in separate directions. Gordon checking us into the marina and I'm off to check out the yacht club. They are having a ladies lunch so I could hear the chatter of voices as I tour the 1st floor of the building and grounds snapping pictures. The club is immaculate and the grounds perfectly manicured.
It was a great day on the water! Looking forward to some docktails and dinner before starting it all again tomorrow as we head to Marathon in the Florida Keys.
