Gulfport, Fl to Sarasota, Fl

Total Miles Traveled 1233

Happy New Year!

We had a great time visiting with our family during the holidays near Cocoa, Florida…..you can’t beat the 80’s in December.  We drove back to Gulfport Friday and completed a few maintenance projects Saturday, then rang in the New Year Saturday night.

It was tough getting up early after a late night, but we had to cross Tampa Bay today and wanted to get across early before the wind kicked the waves up.

There is only one thing worse than cruising on a weekend……cruising on a holiday weekend.  As we came across Sarasota Bay we had boats coming from every direction….we are inside of the ICW marked channel.




We dropped the hook next to the Ringling Causeway at Sarasota and spent the afternoon watching a variety of boats coming in and out of the bay.
