Wind Dancer in Preparation

May 2008
We sailed our new boat from St. Petersburg, Florida to Pensacola via Caravelle , Appilachicola, and Port St. Jo to be fitted for cruising. Encountered along the way was our first overnight sail, wonderful courteous service at The Moorings in Caravelle, fabulous oysters and shrimp at Boss Oyster house in Appilachicola, our first under the bridge experience there also, first river passage to Port St. Jo, and first storm at sea with a rough finish into Pensacola Bay at 4 am with 8 foot following seas, fitful rain, and distant lightning...no bimini or dodger, That was yet to come.
