Okay...I'm kidding...it was fake snow...quite a few of the homes along the New River were decorated for Christmas...
Had a wonderful SAIL to Miami, will let Paul give the details...this picture is looking back at downtown Miami...under the bridge we just went under...
This is where we are anchored off of Dinner Key. Paul is making pizza for dinner, so I'm staying out of his way...his pizza is the BEST!!!
Well we left the New River on a strong outgoing tide, Just as we cast off the Jungle Queen...that big ass tour boat rounds the bend and swings his big big butt toward us forcing me up against the wall....outboard against the piling...now bent rail...$%#@^%$#@ among a few other sayings. Had a great sail against the current...boat sailing well but SOG (speed over ground) said 6 kts ..boat speed at 7+. Sailed into the main ship channel and hooked a left into SHALLOW Biscayne Bay/ We were motoring in 8-13 ft of water till we found the channel to Dinner Key. Channel was 8-9 ft. At times there was only 6 inches under the keel. Went through the marina and back out the other channel and anchored with 18 inches under the keel...We will see how good the pizza is....
