Saturday, we cruised at 6.4 knots only planing to make 30 - 40 miles. As we passed through an extremely narrow pass we contacted an approaching boat 60 ft at least. We discussed the approach and agreed to pass on the one whistle ( port to port). Further conversations lead to recommendations that we needed to stay in downtown Pensacola Fl. Yes we have crossed the line into Florida!!! Our new friend " Shell Cracker" radioed that he was not using his slip tonight so we were welcome to use his slip! We only made about 28 miles today. The Marina / yacht club is right in the middle of town.The downtown is a lovely area. I took the bike to the liquor store as we had run out of rum to make lum and remonades . We will need to make some miles for the next couple of days to make a passage from Carabella to Tarpon Springs on Wed or Thursday. Weather permitting! Will,post again as we can based on internet availability ! We hope all is well with you and yours! God bless!
