Our 24 hour sail from Charlotte Harbor to Key West started out beautifully, 10 kt winds, a sunset at sea, grilled steak, baked potatoes, and ice cream for dessert. We lost our wind atnight and had to turn to the engine, but by 4am, we were back to 6-8 foot seas and 20 knot winds. Our arrival at Key West included a surprise wave through the stern that soaked us to our calves and taught us that we better close the hatches if the waves are that size! We arrived at the Navy Marina here. Great facility! We have a nice laundry and shower, a private beach, and a cool bar. What more do you need?
