January 2 - Made it to Lake Worth Inlet!

Position: N26º 45’.617 W080º 02’684

We are currently anchored next to Peanut Island right by the Lake Worth Inlet (near West Palm Beach). We’ve put in our waypoints so we can depart here tomorrow morning before first light. There are about 30 sailboats anchored here and we’re hoping that a few of us will be buddy boating together.

We left the Harborage Marina this morning and it was difficult to say goodbye to such a lovely facility and new friends. Going down the ICW today was lovely – too many beautiful homes to count and BLUE water! Wahoo!!! It was a day of bridges, but the Bridge Gods were with us as we waited for none of them. Lucky us!

We have a reservation tomorrow evening at Old Bahama Bay Marina in West End where we can check in with onsite customs and get squared away before proceeding further onto the Bahama Bank. The weather looks really great for the next 3 days so we’re hoping to get all the way to Green Turtle Cay which we’ve been told has gorgeous water and we’re looking forward to spending a few days snorkeling if the weather permits.

You can reach us by Skype when we have an internet connection. Our log on name is LongGone.

Happy New Year!!!!
