Lignumvitae Key, to Key Largo, FL

Miles Traveled 28.6
Total Miles Traveled 2288
Day 171

We spent today cruising the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway; there are areas of wide open bodies of water dotted with islands.






Although it looks like you can go anywhere, we must follow a charted course and follow the channel markers when available.  At one point we had only 3 feet below our boat….in the middle of the channel.  The tide in this area is less than 1 foot.



This sailboat missed his turn and run aground.




We passed a sailboat race in progress this afternoon.



The winds have calmed, the temperature tonight in the mid 60’s, and we are in a protected anchorage, it looks like a good night’s sleep will be had by all.
